Set back from the road, this elegant 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home exudes sophistication and comfort. Upon entering the grand foyer, you’ll be immediately impressed by the intricate molding, 8-foot doorways, and soaring 10-foot ceilings. A formal dining room off the foyer creates a stunning focal point for the seamless flow of this impeccable floor plan. Ideal for entertaining, the home features a dry bar with glass display cabinets and a wine cooler, leading to the newly renovated gourmet kitchen. Equipped with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, a spacious island, double wall ovens, and a 5-burner gas range, this kitchen is a chef’s dream. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy breakfast area and keeping room, perfect for morning coffee or casual living, with easy access to the newly added screened porch. The great room is an inviting space, boasting a black marble fireplace, custom built-in shelving, and expansive windows that frame views of the private backyard, bringing natural light and serenity indoors. Whether hosting large gatherings or intimate get-togethers, this generously sized room seamlessly connects to the kitchen, foyer, and dining areas. The main-level master suite offers a luxurious retreat with its own gas fireplace and a newly added vaulted sitting room, perfect for a home office, nursery, or private TV room. The master bath includes dual vanities, a large soaking tub, a walk-in tile shower, and two walk-in closets, creating an exquisite space for relaxation. Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms—two sharing a Jack-and-Jill bath, while the third enjoys its own private bath. A large laundry room with ample storage is conveniently located on the main level, just outside the master suite. The meticulously landscaped backyard provides complete privacy and features lush plant beds, walking paths, a charming potting shed, and a fenced area for pets or gardening. No detail has been overlooked in this beautifully designed home, situated just steps from the recently renovated Beechwood Shopping Center, offering easy access to coffee shops, boutiques, and dining. xx
