Here's what summer looks like here: someone in the pool, something on the grill, and a covered deck nobody leaves until the fireflies come out. It's a home built for a good time, and one careful owner has spent 25 years keeping it that way. |+| You pull up to a manicured lawn and a stone-and-vinyl two-story entry; the leaded-glass panels beside the red door were made by hand by the seller's father. It's the kind of detail you can't order. Inside, you follow the hardwood past a front office and a formal living and dining room to the spot everyone finds anyway: a granite island open to the great room. The kitchen is large, and it's close enough to the gas fireplace to enjoy it on a cold morning. |+| Upstairs surprises you. The owner's suite stretches better than 25 feet, with a walk-in closet and an oversized glass-and-tile shower beside a double vanity. Two more bedrooms fill out the level, and the loft is just one more wall away from becoming a fourth bedroom. |+| Rainy days head downstairs, where the projector and drop-down screen stay for movie nights and game days, a flex room waits beside them, and a deep storage-and-utility side hides what you'd rather not see. |+| The backyard is almost its own address. Off the covered Trex deck, a pond slips under a little footbridge on its way to the gazebo swing, with a 12-by-24 pool and a fully fenced, private yard beyond. Buy comfortable patio furniture because you're going to spend a lot of time here. |+| And just like that pond, the invisible work is already 'Water Under the Bridge': roof, furnace and air, water heater, water softener and reverse osmosis, a backup generator with transfer switch, 200-amp service, refinished floors, irrigation, and a Nature Stone three-car garage floor. All that's left is the paint and paper if you want to change the palette. |+| The life you've been picturing starts the day you get the keys.
