One Owner! Custom Designed! Custom Built! This home has been loved and appreciated and is ready for a new family to love it and add to its story! Over 3400 square feet, with unique amenities and special touches. Walk in from the front double doors and enter the beautiful foyer. From here, go to the 34' long living room with its grand piano, or around the corner to the step-down family room on the east end of the house. The main level also includes an Egyptian-themed bedroom, a half bath, a spacious mudroom/laundry room with a hidden cubbie under the stairs, a galley kitchen with an adorable breakfast nook at one end and a formal dining room at the other. Go up the grand staircase in the foyer and enter one of two ensuite bedrooms. The Alice in Wonderland bedroom is on the left, with spacious closets, a Juliet balcony and a decorative fireplace mantle that looks just right! The primary bedroom across the walkway has the best view in the house. It also has a walk-in closet, plenty of storage in the bathroom and ample space. Each bathroom has a unique wall storage area for a bathroom scale. Shh! There is a secret hallway connecting the two bedrooms. Step out of the laundry room onto the wood deck and breathe in the fresh air! The large yard is mostly fenced, with several brick patios, fountains, walkways, statuary and relaxing spots to drink your coffee, read, or watch nature. Surrounded by mature trees, the park-like yard features hundreds of perennial plants to give beauty and fragrance in every season. The Wisteria is especially beautiful right now! We can't forget the finished, oversized 3-car garage with large windows and a wall of storage, concrete driveway and beautiful fencing. This immaculate home and garden combine modern convenience with the feel of a Colonial mansion. I have a feeling that Scarlett O'Hara would be right at home here!
