**Property will be available for showings starting 1/17 kicking off with an open house from 10:00AM-1:00PM.** Located in My Lady's Manor is this beautifully maintained 2.39-acre level lot, this exceptional Gast Construction custom-built brick home impresses you with a natural, flowing sense of space, excellent craftsmanship, and the feel of resort-style living. Upon arrival, the superior quality of the home is evident; from the full brick exterior, 50-year lifetime architectural shingles, Andersen windows and doors, and thoughtfully designed hardscaping that leads to the private, expansive rear yard designed for both everyday enjoyment and turnkey entertaining. Step through the front door into a dramatic two-story foyer where a vaulted ceiling draws your eyes to a beautiful 20-light chandelier, extensive moldings and a center staircase to set the tone of what is to come. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, drawing you past the formal living room to the left with a tray ceiling and to the right is the elegant dining room with wainscotting. Both formal rooms feature Palladian windows, plantation shutters, pocket doors and are completed with beautiful custom millwork. The kitchen masterfully blends warmth and functionality with custom maple cabinetry, granite countertops, ample pantry storage, a built-in desk area, under and above-cabinet lighting, and a full suite of appliances including a propane Jenn-Air range with griddle and downdraft, double full-size ovens in the island, French door refrigerator, and a cozy propane fireplace. From the breakfast nook, an oversized slider opens to the backyard, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. In an open concept theme, the sunken family room features recessed lighting, two ceiling fans, a fireplace with tiled surround and wood mantle. The family room has bi-parting sliding doors that open to the back patio. This area is anchored by concrete columns that subtly define the space while maintaining the open flow. A powder room and a highly functional laundry and mudroom with built-ins, utility sink, freezer, ironing station, and a custom hand-built spiral oak staircase complete the main level. There is interior access to the fully insulated three-car garage offering extra-deep bays, built-in shelving, pulley storage, and a separate door to invite you to the backyard. Upstairs, 4' wide hallways and hardwood floors lead to a serene primary suite with crown molding, and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a jetted tub, glass-enclosed tiled shower, dual vanities, a private water closet, linen storage, and a spacious walk-in closet. Four additional generously sized bedrooms complete with builder customizations are on this level. One includes a full ensuite bathroom. A hall bathroom compliments the other three bedrooms. The fifth bedroom is very versatile and could be used for flexible purposes. There's built-in storage benches, dormer storage, recessed lighting, and separate HVAC zoning for this space. The lower level with 8'+ ceilings is ready for finishing with electric and a full bath rough-in, insulated ceilings, deep freezer, built-in shelving, oak stairs, and double doors leading to extra wide walkout steps. Outside, is the icing on the cake!
