Just steps from Riverside Military Academy, yet hidden from the street and city sounds by a wooded, tree-canopied drive. Set on a park-like property, the impressive all-brick residence spans nearly 11,000 square feet and includes a finished terrace level featuring a separate apartment. The overall layout offers flexibility for large households or multigenerational living, with a main-level primary suite and two en-suites upstairs.

An inviting entertainment room above the two-car garage adds teen appeal, and the additional three-car garage provides abundant space for multiple drivers, a workshop, hobbies, and storage. The chef’s kitchen is designed to serve a busy household, and multiple living areas offer room to gather or unwind, together or individually. Hardwood floors, energy-efficient features, and generous storage round out the home’s practical appeal. Outdoors, enjoy wooded views, a private yard, an outdoor fireplace, and a spa—ideal for relaxing or low-key entertaining. Close to schools, shopping, hospitals, and dining, this home offers the rare combination of privacy, space, and convenience—ready to be personalized and enjoyed for years to come.
