Curb appeal abounds at this elegant Chesapeake model by Schell Brothers, the Peninsula’s premier builder. Multiple roofline peaks, board and batten shutters, a metal accent roof, a 2-bay garage with pergola cover, and a spacious covered front porch set the tone for over 5,000 square feet of upgraded living space inside. With six bedrooms, five baths, and a thoughtfully designed layout that includes a finished basement, this home offers exceptional versatility for today’s lifestyle. Like new and never lived in, it presents the rare opportunity to enjoy a pristine home without the wait for new construction.
Step inside to find detailed wainscoting in the foyer, custom window treatments, and 5” hickory hardwood flooring across the main living areas. The chef’s kitchen showcases Wellborn soft-close cabinetry with underlighting, quartz countertops, a custom range hood, display cabinetry, and a classic subway tile backsplash. The GE Monogram appliance suite includes a 36” six-burner natural gas range, 48” counter-depth refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher. A walk-in pantry and mudroom with washer/dryer hook-up add everyday convenience.
The adjoining dining area flows seamlessly to the outdoors through transom glass sliding doors, opening to a raised composite deck with an attractive white railing and views of the private, tree-lined backyard. Anchoring the grand living room is a stacked stone gas fireplace with raised hearth, flanked by floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in natural light.
The first-floor owner’s suite features a spa-like bath with rough-in for a future soaking tub. Additional main-level highlights include a rear guest bedroom with full hall bath and a private home office with a transom French door.
Upstairs, wood risers lead to an expansive loft, a second ensuite with a walk-in closet, two additional bedrooms with shared bath, and a spacious bonus room.
The finished basement offers incredible flexibility, making it perfect for use as an in-law suite. It includes a media room, bedroom, full bath, and a second laundry room with washer and dryer in place. A rough-in for a future wet bar adds even more possibilities.
Set on one of the community’s premium wooded lots, this home offers rare privacy with no homes directly behind it and tranquil views of protected open space that will never be developed. The oversized backyard is ideal for entertaining, with a raised deck and plenty of space for a patio, fire pit, or hot tub.
The community amenities are just eight doors away, where you’ll find the completed pool and clubhouse with fitness center, indoor and outdoor bar areas, pavilion with fireplace, game room, BBQ area, and lounge. Year-round recreation includes pickleball, tennis, and basketball courts, pocket parks, and “The Thicket,” a unique outdoor retreat with hammocks and gazebos.
