This home is a full experience where city access meets a true natural setting. Located directly across from the wetlands and within walking distance to Brookhaven favorites like Haven Restaurant, it offers both convenience and privacy in one of the area’s most desirable pockets. Originally built by the builder for personal use, the property reflects a higher level of construction and thoughtful upgrades throughout. The home is framed with 2x6 construction (exceeding standard 2x4), heavily insulated for efficiency, and equipped with geothermal HVAC—resulting in significantly lower energy costs. The main living space opens seamlessly to a covered, screened porch through accordion-style doors, creating an indoor-outdoor flow ideal for entertaining. The backyard is expansive and private, backing to a creek with frequent wildlife sightings, including birds and barred owls. Interior features include: * Custom, site-built real wood cabinetry and illuminated built-ins * Climate-controlled, illuminated wine closet * Dedicated office with built-ins and concealed storage behind a bookshelf * Built-in recessed space for two standard dog crates in the office * Built-in furniture in the primary bedroom, with ample remaining space * Separate walk-in closets in the primary suite Additional highlights: * Three-car garage, including an oversized two-car bay with space for lifts and recreational vehicles * Irrigated yard and garden * Large upstairs bonus loft, already plumbed for a future bathroom, ideal for conversion into a private suite * Adjacent county-owned, unbuildable lot providing long-term privacy * Deck features Ipe wood - rot resistant - low maintenance brazilian hardwood This is a property designed with intention, high-performance construction, flexible living spaces, and a setting that balances nature with proximity to Brookhaven’s best amenities.

This House is a whole vibe. Walking distance to Brookhaven eateries (haven, etc) and directly across street from the Wetlands, this home has city comforts and an active nature scene. Built by Patsios Homes, this home features many upgrades. Accordion porch doors that open to the covered screen porch, custom built cooled wine closet, privacy (county owned unbuildable lot next door), real wood cabinets and built ins handcrafted and built on site, geothermal hvac for ridiculously low (about $130 mo or LESS) electricity bills, separate office with built ins and with a zombie apocalypse supply hidden storage spot behind the bookshelf. Also is a recessed area for 2 avg size dog crates. Three car garage. The two car is HUGE. Big enough for two lifts and toys. The single looks small, but I park a Q5 in it and I am an average driver. Raised garden beds are producing fresh veggies (printing money). Irrigated yard and garden. Built with 2x6 (2x4 is the standard) studs and insulated like a cooler. Built in furniture in primary bedroom but bedroom still large enough you can line the walls with dressers if you have them. Separate walk in closets. Giant bonus room upstairs that is plumbed for a bathroom should you need to create a suite. Covered screened super private porch and a deck for grilling. The backyard is huge and backs up to a creek that has never crested while I've been here (2015). There are tons of birds and the barred owls are entertaining. Amazing home.
