Nestled on a picturesque one-acre lot in the sought-after Riverwood community, this meticulously maintained 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath estate home offers over 6,000 square feet of living space across three thoughtfully designed levels. Showcasing an impressive blend of elegance and functionality, this residence is perfect for those seeking luxurious living with a personal touch.
A grand two-story foyer greets you upon entry, with a sweeping staircase as its centerpiece and a secondary staircase conveniently located off the kitchen. Crown molding enhances the living and dining rooms flanking the foyer, setting an inviting tone. Gleaming hardwood floors extend throughout the main level, where every detail has been curated for comfort and style. The expanded gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring a Wolf six-burner range-top, double wall oven with a microwave combo, stainless steel appliances, and expansive upgraded cabinetry. A large island with seating, a planning station, and a walk-in pantry add both beauty and utility. Adjacent table space opens to a serene screened porch, deck, and a stone patio, ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation. Connected to the kitchen is the sunlit family room, where a soaring two-story ceiling and stacked windows create a dramatic yet cozy atmosphere. A gas fireplace anchors the space, while an integrated speaker system enhances the ambiance. The main level also includes a private study or fifth bedroom, a powder room with upgraded vanity, and a well-equipped laundry room with additional storage and counter space.
Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite serves as a private retreat with a spacious bedroom and a sitting room. Two walk-in closets, including an expansive 7’ x 17’ space, provide abundant storage. The spa-inspired en-suite bath features a soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, water closet, and a double vanity with upgraded quartz countertop. A second bedroom with its own en-suite bath and two additional generously sized bedrooms sharing a full bath complete the upper level.
The fully finished walk-up basement is an entertainer’s delight. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows through a spacious recreation room with a kitchenette featuring soft close cabinets, under-cabinet lighting, and a full-size stainless steel refrigerator. A full bath with a floor-to-ceiling tiled shower, multiple storage areas, and pre-wired speaker systems elevate the functionality of this level. Custom features such as extra closets, a rough-in for a dishwasher, and a workshop with built-in lighting add versatility.
This home’s design incorporates thoughtful expansions, with a 4-foot bump-out on all three levels (2 feet in the family room and basement recreation room), enhancing key spaces such as the kitchen, primary suite, bedrooms, and study. Upgraded cabinetry throughout and expanded areas ensure maximum convenience and storage. Modern updates ensure peace of mind and efficiency. Both HVAC systems have been replaced, and the home features a 3-4-year-old water heater, new kitchen appliances, and whole-house surge protection. A Generac generator powers the entire home, including A/C units, ensuring uninterrupted comfort.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a covered porch, deck, stone patio, and landscaped grounds designed for beauty and low maintenance. Custom landscaping enhances the property’s curb appeal while providing privacy and tranquility.
Located just minutes from schools and major commuter routes, this estate offers a perfect blend of timeless elegance, modern upgrades, and thoughtful enhancements to meet the demands of today’s lifestyle.
