Stunning stone-and-stucco ranch, custom-built just few years ago as a former model home, offering the quality, style, and convenience of newer construction. Thoughtfully designed with exceptional finishes, designer lighting, soaring 10+ ft ceilings, and beautiful architectural details throughout, this home offers a flexible floor plan designed to accommodate a variety of lifestyles. The open floor plan features wide-plank flooring and an abundance of natural light. The beautifully appointed white kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring quartz countertops, an oversized waterfall island, and stainless-steel appliances. The kitchen opens to the dining area and spacious family room, highlighted by a cozy fireplace and sliding doors leading to a covered patio overlooking the fenced yard and peaceful nature preserve. The private primary suite features an elegant tray ceiling, two walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, private WC w/bidet, soaking tub, and freestanding shower. The flexible main-level floor plan includes a beautifully appointed office with wainscoting and coffered ceiling that can easily serve as a living room or a third bedroom, providing the option for a 3rd bedroom on the main level. A spacious en-suite guest bedroom is also located on the main floor and offers a walk-in closet and a spacious bath. The generous foyer and hallway feature tray ceilings that add architectural interest and a sense of scale. A large mudroom/laundry room and stylish powder room complete the main level. The finished lower level provides exceptional additional living space, with a spacious recreation room, handsome beverage bar, an additional en-suite bedroom, and a dedicated workout room that can also function as a fifth bedroom. The combination of a potential third bedroom on the main level and a private bedroom suite in the lower level offers outstanding flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, an au pair, or a private home office arrangement. Additional features include a new infrared sauna, Tesla charger, garage freezer, and whole-house Culligan water treatment system (leased). With nearly 3,600 square feet of finished living space, this exceptional ranch offers an ideal combination of newer construction, quality finishes, and everyday functionality. Meticulously maintained and truly move-in ready, this home offers the flexibility to adapt to your needs while providing comfortable living and effortless entertaining.
