Custom 4-Bedroom, 3-Bath Home - Timeless Craftsmanship and Modern Comfort
Built by renowned builder Gilbert Stroud, recipient of the ''Best in Show'' award, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath custom home showcases exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and enduring quality. Lovingly maintained by its original owners, it offers the perfect balance of elegance and everyday comfort.
A spacious front porch welcomes you home, while a large screened porch and deck provide inviting spaces to relax and enjoy peaceful outdoor living. Inside, soaring high ceilings, hardwood and ceramic tile floors, and abundant natural light create an open, welcoming atmosphere.
The gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring stainless steel appliances, a large pantry, and extensive cabinetry for both function and beauty. The living room, anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, is ideal for gatherings or quiet evenings at home.
The primary suite offers a private retreat, while the bonus room serves as a flexible fourth bedroom with its own full bath—perfect for guests or a home office. Additional highlights include a walk-in attic (safe conveys), floored storage area, and a booster fan for enhanced upstairs comfort.
Practical updates and modern features include a new hot water heater (2025), Tesla charging outlet, and TVs in the living room and primary bedroom that convey. The attached two-car garage adds extra convenience and workspace.
From its award-winning pedigree to its timeless details, this custom-built home offers a rare blend of luxury, functionality, and enduring appeal.
