This exquisite 4 bedroom, 4.5-bathroom custom home, built by Barry Bullard, that sits on a beautifully landscaped 1-acre lot is more than a residence, it's a lifestyle. A spectacular, expansive driveway welcomes you to the property, complete with a circular drive that creates a stately entrance and stunning curb appeal. The property features an open three-way split floor plan, accented by custom Origin windows and doors, and stunning luxury vinyl flooring throughout. The double glass entry doors lead to a great room that offers a 12-foot coffered ceiling, a stacked marble gas fireplace, and elegant lighted built-ins. Adjacent to the great room is a flex space, perfect for a piano, extra seating, or a formal dining area. The dining room includes a bar area with lighted shelving, an under-counter beverage refrigerator, and a stunning chandelier.

Custom cabinetry surrounds the high-end stainless steel appliances, including a Wolf gas cooktop, wall oven, microwave, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer. A discreet walk-in pantry, hidden behind a stylish cabinet door, offers ample space with additional custom cabinets, countertops, shelving, and a second refrigerator. To the left of the foyer, a hallway leads to a custom coat closet, a private study, an elegant guest half-bath, and an oversized laundry room with an island, ample space for storage and organization and built-in custom pet kennels.
