Property Description
Welcome to 551 Kilkenny Ct, a warm and inviting custom home tucked on a peaceful cul-de-sac in Gilberts Glen. Set on over an acre of land, this home is your quiet escape from the busy world, filled with thoughtful spaces that invite you to slow down, settle in, and enjoy the little moments. Step inside to a light-filled foyer where a vaulted ceiling and skylight instantly lift your mood. The main level offers a spacious formal living room perfect for relaxed gatherings or a quiet book by the window. Just beyond, the heart of the home shines - a country-style kitchen with an abundance of cabinets built in desk and a pantry. Enjoy gatherings in the roomy eating area for life's daily rhythm. Whether it's pancake breakfasts, school projects, or evening catch-ups, this is where connection happens. Head upstairs where three generously sized bedrooms give everyone their own retreat. The primary suite is a true haven, with space for a king bed, cozy seating. Enjoy the evening watching the stars from the balcony outside the sliding glass doors. A private bath finishes out this space. Two additional bedrooms, both bright and are oversized. Such a great floor plan!. A second full bath offers comfort and convenience for all. Downstairs, the lower level welcomes you with a wide-open family room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace - ideal for movie nights or quiet winter evenings. Nearby, a fourth bedroom offers flexibility as a home office, guest space, or creative studio. A finished utility room and crawl space give you storage without clutter. Step outside and breathe in the open air. The backyard is massive - more than an acre of green space where dreams can grow. Think garden beds, yard games, a future pool, or peaceful mornings on the back deck. The attached two-car garage includes an extended side drive for extra parking, ideal for guests or extra vehicles. From sunrise coffee in the kitchen to sunset skies in the backyard, every inch of this home invites you to live fully and feel at ease. It offers the comfort of country living with thoughtful features that make everyday life better. This is more than a house - it's a place to feel grounded, relaxed, and right where you belong.
