Welcome home to 500 Rockford Rd. Nestled amongst the trees in the very private and exclusive neighborhood of Springbrook Forest, lies this incredible property situated on nearly an acre of magnificent foliage. You'll first realize how special this opportunity is as you drive into the neighborhood, lined with stunning mature trees and beautifully manicured lots. The property itself has more than 500 flowering shrubs, adding to the privacy of this remarkable space.

The home itself includes numerous significant upgrades. The previous porch was converted into a grand sun soaked dining room, perfect for large gatherings. Extensive stonework complements the front of the home, as well as the expansive patio and retaining wall. The kitchen has been nicely appointed with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, complete with a bay window to stare into your private sanctuary.
