Home Description
Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly desirable Hardscrabble neighborhood, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers the perfect blend of timeless charm, modern updates, and serene outdoor living—all set on a private 1.22-acre lot. The professionally landscaped yard features low-maintenance plantings, including flowering shrubs and ornamental grasses, providing year-round beauty and a peaceful retreat.
Inside, the home boasts new hardwood flooring, fresh paint throughout, and stylish new light fixtures. Thoughtful architectural details include crown molding, wainscoting, and classic baseboards, adding a refined touch to every room. The spacious layout features an updated kitchen with modern appliances, custom shelving in the pantry, and a large primary suite complete with a deep soaking tub, walk-in shower, and custom shelving in the walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms and a flexible bonus room offer space for guests, a home office, or a playroom.
Comfort and efficiency have been fully addressed with a new roof, new heat pump and air conditioner (all installed in 2024), a Paloma tankless water heater, and a cleaned crawlspace with a dehumidifier. Custom door latches add an extra layer of security, and newly installed French drains ensure the backyard stays dry year-round.
Cozy up by one of the two gas log fireplaces or unwind outdoors on the screened porch overlooking the fenced backyard. There's also a welcoming fire pit area, as well as deep covered front and side porches that are perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. A spacious two-car garage provides ample storage and convenience.
Located in one of the area's most sought-after communities, residents enjoy exceptional neighborhood amenities including a pool, clubhouse, playground, tennis courts, pickleball, scenic walking trails, and community gardens. This is truly a home where comfort, style, and community come together.
