New home for sale - Not in a Subdivision
Experience an ideal blend of location, charm, and curb appeal in this brand-new construction home, ideally situated within walking distance of the vibrant Golden Belt—a mixed-use destination featuring art studios, boutique shops, eclectic restaurants, and a brewery. Although the original house could not be preserved, the owners maintained its timeless character by adopting a design known as the Sugar House, echoing the spirit of the previous structure and the neighborhood.
A welcoming rocking chair front porch awaits you, complete with two ceiling fans, automated dusk-to-dawn lighting, and a Google Doorbell. Step inside to a light, airy, and open floor plan where the family room is equipped with a ceiling fan, recessed lighting, an in-wall TV system, and a central closet. The dining area is bathed in natural light from three expansive windows and features a stunning chandelier.
The gourmet kitchen boasts cream-colored cabinetry adorned with antique brass hardware, exquisite quartz countertops, a handcrafted tile backsplash, and a dark green island paired with high-end Forno appliances. A spacious pantry with a dedicated microwave outlet, a cozy breakfast bar with seating, and a bright nook overlooking the deck enhance functionality. Adjacent to the kitchen, a period-style half bath features a classic light fixture, a storage-friendly vanity, and marble hexagon flooring.
The downstairs primary bedroom is designed for comfort with its ceiling fan, recessed lighting, and a generous walk-in closet. The adjoining primary bathroom impresses with dual sinks, a walk-in tile shower, and expansive hexagon tile flooring.
Ascending the staircase—illuminated by elegant sconces—you'll find three large upstairs bedrooms, each offering its own walk-in closet (with two of them being exceptionally spacious), along with a conveniently located walk-in laundry room. The full bath upstairs features striking black and white tile, dual vanity sinks, and a well-appointed tile shower. Additional storage is provided by a pull-down attic.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a large deck perfect for entertaining and a substantial parking pad at the rear of the property, eliminating the need for street parking. A partial fence ensures privacy, while crown molding and generous baseboards add a refined touch throughout the home. Durable LVP flooring spans the main areas with wood stairs, and energy efficiency is enhanced by sprayed insulation, a sealed crawlspace, and a tankless water heater. EV Port off back of the house.
This home offers a sophisticated and energy-efficient living experience without compromising on the charm and character of its original inspiration. Agents are sellers.
