Enjoy the best of both worlds: Modern new construction design with the benefit of common necessities new construction doesn't offer, and a fully established neighborhood, with NO HOA, all located within the award-winning School District 196! Built in 2021, this PET-FREE executive two-story home offers 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a 3-car garage, and nearly 3,700 square feet of fully functional living space. Step onto the inviting covered front porch-the perfect place to relax with a glass of iced tea on a warm summer day. Inside, you're welcomed by an expansive foyer and convenient powder room, creating an impressive first impression for guests. The main level features soaring 10-foot ceilings throughout, elegant 8-foot two-panel doors, and an open, light-filled floor plan that enhances the home's spacious feel. The inviting living room offers large windows inviting natural light and centered around a stunning stone-surround fireplace. Just beyond, the informal dining area provides easy access through oversized patio doors to a 20'x 14' maintenance-free deck w/stairway leading to the expansive backyard. Situated on nearly 1/2 an acre, the lot offers ample space for entertaining, recreation, or simply relaxing-and even features one of the city's best sledding hills during the winter months! Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the chef's kitchen showcases extensive cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large center island, stainless steel appliances, a ceramic tile backsplash, professional-grade range hood vented to the exterior, and a spacious walk-in pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find a large private home office or flex room with a tempered glass door, along with a functional mudroom featuring a wall of built-in lockers. Upstairs, the home offers 4 generously sized bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a conveniently located laundry room. The oversized primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a luxurious en-suite bath featuring a separate soaking tub and shower, as well as a spacious L-shaped walk-in closet. The finished walk-out lower level expands the home's living space with a large family and amusement room equipped with in-ceiling surround sound speakers. Sliding patio doors open to a 15'x 10' patio shaded by the maintenance-free deck above, creating another ideal outdoor living space. This level also includes a 5th bedroom, a beautifully appointed 3/4 bathroom, a generous storage and mechanical room, and a versatile 14'x 11' flex room currently used for storage that could easily become a home gym, playroom, hobby room, or additional office. Located 5 minutes from a major athletic/swim club, just 10 minutes from abundant shopping, dining, entertainment, and only steps from Ailesbury Park, scenic walking & biking trails, all while offering quick access to County Rd 42 & HWY 52. This meticulously maintained home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the quality, style, and efficiency of newer construction - without the constant noise/pounding of new construction in your neighborhood or sacrificing mature surroundings, necessary upgrades, or the freedom of living in a neighborhood with no HOA.
