Compelling value in sought-after Avenel (20817)—a rare opportunity with significant upside. A comparable home in largely original condition in the community closed at $2.495M (6/10/2024), underscoring the potential here. This well-maintained Mitchell & Best-built estate offers approximately 7,550 SF (5,704 above grade plus a finished walk-out lower level), featuring timeless architecture, a desirable floor plan, and quality craftsmanship. Highlights include a dramatic two-story foyer, a sun-filled family room with soaring ceilings and walls of windows, and a spacious kitchen with oversized L-shaped counters, Sub-Zero refrigerator, GE Profile wall double ovens and electric trash compactor (2026), and a KitchenAid dishwasher (2016). Three fireplaces add warmth and character. The expansive primary suite offers a sitting area, skylights, two walk-in closets, and a spa-style bath. The finished walk-out lower level includes a recreation room with stone fireplace, game area, guest suite, and two full baths—ideal for entertaining or extended living. Set on a private, wooded lot—one of Avenel’s most desirable settings—this home offers exceptional space, setting, and long-term value. Major systems are functional, with recent updates including a 2025 HVAC system. A major plumbing upgrade in 2019 replaced original Polybutylene piping with a high-quality Uponor PEX system and included a 75-gallon gas water heater. Three skylights were replaced in 2018 with energy-efficient Velux glass units, and the primary bath and powder room were renovated in 2015. Price reflects current condition and upside, with roof condition fully factored into pricing; seller is currently working through an insurance review. Future improvements such as roof and select window updates offer additional upside, allowing buyers to personalize over time. Seller is not aware of any hidden issues. Sold strictly AS-IS. Easy to show. Select furniture may be available for purchase under a separate agreement.
