Situated on a tranquil street with picturesque views of the Ravisloe Golf Course, this exquisite home offers a blend of privacy and sophistication. The property spans approximately half an acre and features meticulously landscaped grounds that enhance its serene atmosphere. A charming wrap-around front porch invites you in, while large windows throughout the home fill each room with natural light. Inside, you'll find solid oak doors and stunning stained glass windows in both the library and owner's private bathroom, showcasing the home's timeless craftsmanship. The main level boasts formal dining and living rooms, a spacious kitchen with a central island and salad sink, and custom display whole wall book shelves in the inviting family room. Upstairs, the second floor includes a well-appointed loft library, a convenient laundry room, and four generously sized bedrooms. The owner's ensuite serves as a luxurious retreat, complete with a large jacuzzi tub for two, separate sinks, and a steam shower, all with views of the beautifully landscaped grounds. Modern amenities abound, including owned solar panels with no exposed conduit (The electric bill was $207 for the entire year in 2023), a whole-house central vacuum system, and separate HVAC systems for each floor. The heated and air-conditioned all-season room offers year-round comfort, while a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter adds a cozy touch in the family room. With nine-foot ceilings on both levels, an emergency natural gas generator, high-end rain gutters with caps, rough plumbing in the basement for a future bathroom, and an intercom/radio system throughout, this home is as functional as it is beautiful. The attached three-car garage includes an electric vehicle charge outlet and basement access, while an additional attached and heated garage with a 12' door is perfect for an RV, boat, workshop and even 2 more cars. This home is a true haven, offering luxury, comfort, and an ideal blend of modern conveniences and classic elegance.
