Introducing an architecturally unique property in the Charlemagne subdivision. A ranch home was architecturally reconceived into a two story, contemporary dwelling highlighted by a soaring ceiling and dramatic use of outdoor light. A custom designed front door invites you into a marble foyer and two-story living space, embracing a casual elegance and ambience. A recently redesigned family room includes a dramatic marble wall embraced with recessed lighting and housing an electric fireplace. The renovated kitchen includes high-end cabinetry and appliances surrounding an oversized island. Kitchen and dining room surfaces are adorned with Danby marble protected with a nano technology surface. A pyramidal skylight adds unique charm and light to this oft used space. Elegant hardwood floors cover throughout the home aside from the dramatic marble entryway. A first floor master bedroom suite opens up to a fully renovated bathroom and an enormous custom master closet. Two additional bedrooms and bathroom are located on the first floor. The architecturally unique second floor was completely renovated in 2025. The design includes double flooring resulting in no sound transmission from top to bottom floor. A dramatic walkway highlights the movement from one side of the home to the other. On one end, two rooms share a large Jack and Jill bathroom along with two walk-in closets. The area is ideal for a secluded, bright office space along with an adjacent work-out room, if desired. Another bedroom/bathroom is on the opposite end, ideal for houseguests. The home has a dual zone temperature system. Additional considerations given to environmental issues include tankless water heaters for each floor and commercial grade insulation. A lovely paver patio and surrounding knee wall lends a comfortable area to entertain outdoors. The backyard is surrounded by trees, bushes and fencing, allowing for complete privacy. The house is protected by multiple cameras and a full security system to all lower windows and doors. Other features- the garage floor covered with a polyaspartic surface. Newly poured concrete driveway. A 240 V line installed for EVs. Two ultra quiet garage doors are connected remotely to a smartphone along with the Ring and home thermostat. Charlemagne is a young family haven. Close to award winning D27 & 225 schools and expressways. This truly turn-key home contains six bedrooms and 4 1/2 baths.
