A beautifully manicured circular drive sets the tone as you arrive, welcoming residents and guests into a private sanctuary that feels worlds away from the everyday hustle. This distinctive 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom custom home captivates with its extraordinary architectural detail—gothic arches, exposed wood beams, a refined, tucked-away office, and a sunroom bathed in natural light, all echoing the classic character of Hope Valley's 1920s-era homes. Thoughtful updates throughout bring modern ease to timeless style, including a fully renovated chef's kitchen, a luxurious primary bath with heated floors, an expansive primary closet, a three-level elevator, a relaxing basement sauna, and more. Spanning over 4,400 square feet, the home also offers incredible potential for expansion.
