This sophisticated South End countryside walkout ranch, custom-built by Mark Gudenkauf, was featured in the 2020 Parade of Homes. Set on a 1-acre cul-de-sac lot, this 4-bed, 4-bath home features elevated finishes and a layout designed for everyday comfort and entertaining.

Inside, hardwood floors, refined details, and multiple living spaces, each with a fireplace, create a warm, upscale feel. The chef's kitchen features two-tone cabinetry, a full-height backsplash, floating shelves, and a walk-in pantry. The kitchen opens into a cozy three-season room with wooded views, perfect for entertaining.

Every bedroom includes a private bath, and the primary suite offers a spa-like retreat with a marble-tiled shower and dual showerheads. The finished walkout lower level includes a custom wet bar, a gas fireplace, and a flexible space that can serve as a gym, media room, or guest accommodations. Extras include dual-zoned heating, spray-foam insulation, a nearly 1,000 sq ft garage, mudroom lockers, and professional landscaping. Some rooms are virtually staged.
