Thoughtfully envisioned and meticulously built by its original owner, no detail was overlooked in creating a home that is both luxurious and livable.

The dramatic two-story foyer with an upper-level overlook sets the tone, while a graceful double staircase leads you into the heart of the home — a light-filled main level designed for open, effortless living and entertaining. The spacious family room opens to a gourmet kitchen, flooded with natural light and framed by expansive windows offering breathtaking views. Radiant heated floors and a cozy gas fireplace provide warmth and ambiance during cooler months. The serene primary suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a striking corner stone fireplace, an oversized walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub and dual-entry, double-seated shower. Two additional main-level bedrooms each enjoy private en-suite baths, generous walk-in closets, and elegant French doors opening to a shared balcony — perfect for morning coffee or quiet evenings. The home has been curated to the owners' tastes over the years and is ready to be enjoyed or easily updated to the new owners' preferences. At an entry level price for this sought after neighborhood the potential is primed and ready! This remarkable home is filled with thoughtful upgrades and distinctive features, including soaring 9-foot ceilings that enhance the sense of space and light, and abundant closet and storage areas throughout. The back of the home looks like something out of Southern Charm with a double balcony overlooking multiple outdoor living spaces ideal for entertaining or relaxing. Enjoy views of the fairway, and the neighborhood's favorite sledding hill right from your massive back porch. This property offers a truly seamless connection between indoor elegance and outdoor tranquility. Car enthusiasts or hobbyists will appreciate the two separate 2+ car garages. Park in the upper garage and reserve the expansive lower-level garage, complete with commercial doors, for workshops, collections, or creative pursuits. This home also includes a versatile upper-level suite, ideal for an au pair, in-laws, multi generational living or that kid who just came home from college. The 1 bed, one bath apartment has a full kitchen, living space, W/ D and separate entrance. Both levels of the home have access that avoid stairs with bedrooms on each level so it is perfect for families who need to spread out or need main level bedrooms. With its captivating Southern Cape/Victorian-inspired exterior and unique, thoughtfully designed interior, this home is a unique gem in River Downs.
