This custom-built five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence is nearly complete and ready for move-in, offering an extraordinary blend of sophistication, comfort, and design excellence.  From the moment you enter, you’ll be captivated by the thoughtful detail throughout — 9-foot foundation and first-floor ceilings, an architectural custom staircase, and an elevated trim and paint package showcasing crown, casing, and picture molding. A designer powder room with a custom wall treatment and a premium lighting package further enhance the home’s refined style.  The chef-inspired executive kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring 42-inch custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, backsplash, and a Frigidaire Gallery appliance suite complete with a Sharp microwave drawer and decorative wood hood. The walk-in pantry includes a melamine organization system, while Delta, Elkay, and Kohler fixtures elevate every space.

Hardwood flooring graces the main level, staircase, and upper hallways, complemented by upgraded carpet and padding in all bedrooms.  The luxurious first-floor primary suite offers a private retreat with spa-inspired finishes, including a custom-tiled shower, dual vanities, and quartz countertops. Upstairs, additional bedrooms feature Jack-and-Jill baths with designer tilework and abundant natural light, providing comfort and style for family or guests alike.  The finished lower level expands your living space with LVP flooring, a custom bar area, bedroom, full bath, and a versatile bonus room  "optional"—perfect for an exercise studio, home theater, or a sophisticated wine or bourbon room.  Step outside to a spacious backyard offering endless possibilities, including an optional third-car garage bay and/or future pool opportunity.  Every element of this home has been meticulously curated to deliver an exceptional living experience—balancing elegance, craftsmanship, and modern functionality.
