This is the builder’s personal home, and when a builder builds for himself, the details show. Completed in 2023 on 0.95 private, wooded acres at the end of a cul de sac, this 4,514 square foot transitional home has water views, no HOA, and the public boat ramp at Beatty’s Ford Park less than five minutes down the road.

The main level is built for everyday living. The open family room with gas fireplace flows into the chef’s kitchen, with an oversized island, gas cooktop, gas oven, stainless steel appliances, wine refrigerator, wet bar and a hidden walk in pantry. A drop zone keeps the daily clutter out of sight. The primary suite is on the main level with heated bathroom floors, an oversized shower and a custom walk in closet. A dedicated office and a full size laundry room with sink are on the same floor, so the way you live and work stays on one level.

Sliding glass doors open to a screened porch of more than 320 square feet, plus a patio and fire pit, all overlooking a very private backyard. There is room to add a pool or build a detached garage, and in ground irrigation is already in place.

Upstairs, a large loft opens to a terrace, and three more bedrooms each have their own full bath. One suite has a private exterior entrance, which makes it a natural fit for a home office where clients or employees can come and go without entering the main household, or for a guest suite or studio. There is also a flex space and a second office upstairs.

The garage is the other half of this home. Three bays and 1,097 square feet, with EV charger capability and a drive through bay for the boat, jet skis, motorcycles, golf cart or an extra car. Add interior storage throughout, and everything you own has a place.

Smart systems keep it comfortable and efficient: zoned heat pump, tankless water heater, natural gas, attic fan, ceiling fans, insulated windows, county water and county sewer. Finishes include wood, tile and vinyl plank flooring, a metal accent roof and hardboard siding.

Private, flexible and minutes from the lake, with no HOA.
