Description

This beautifully updated home in Academy Woods - one of the subdivision's largest models - offers a blend of thoughtful design and timeless appeal. The foyer sets the tone with hardwood floors, architectural accents, and a seamless flow that highlights the main-level primary suite and open living spaces. To one side, a dining room with detailed millwork; to the other, the living room with views of the front yard. Beyond, the den and open-concept family room amplify the sense of space and light with a vaulted ceiling, fireplace, and gallery-like overlook from the second floor. The adjacent breakfast room opens to the backyard and leads into the gourmet kitchen, equipped with a professional-grade cooktop, double ovens, an island with wine and beverage refrigeration, and abundant workspace. The main-level primary suite serves as a serene retreat with a tray ceiling, two walk-in closets, and a spa-like bath with soaking tub and separate shower. A stylish powder room and a convenient laundry/mudroom with direct garage access complete the first floor. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms, including a flexible room above the garage, are joined by a loft and an updated full bath. Hardwood floors continue on this level, and an oversized carpeted walk-in closet offers excellent storage. The finished lower level expands the home's versatility with theater and recreation areas, a wet bar with a second beverage refrigerator, and a luxurious full bath. Outside, a paver patio overlooks mature wooded grounds, offering privacy and a peaceful backdrop. With its proximity to the Middle Fork Savanna and meticulous maintenance throughout, this residence delivers exceptional, maintenance-free living.
