Description
If outdoor living, privacy and room for the things you enjoy are high on your list, this home deserves a closer look. Set along a canal of Buckhorn Reservoir, this custom-built brick home offers nearly 4,000 square feet of living space on 1.72 acres, a saltwater pool and more than 1,700 additional square feet in the basement. Life here extends beyond the house. A private path from the backyard leads to the canal, where you can put in a kayak or canoe and head out on the water. With more than 2,100 acres of water and land, Buckhorn Reservoir offers opportunities for boating, fishing, kayaking and water skiing. But the screened porch may be what makes you fall in love with the house. Just shy of 800 square feet, it sits above the pool with views toward the trees and water beyond. The primary suite opens directly onto it, and a half bath on the porch makes pool days and entertaining even easier. Step through the front doors and you'll immediately notice the 14-foot ceiling, tall windows, plantation shutters and beautiful wide-plank cherry hardwood floors. The main floor offers three bedrooms plus an office, two living areas, formal and casual dining, and a separate half bath for guests. The primary suite includes two walk-in closets and a private bath. Upstairs adds nearly 1,000 square feet with a spacious bedroom, its own covered balcony with water views, a full bath and a large bonus room currently used for movies and games. Then there's the basement. More than 1,700 square feet and two garage doors offering approximately 9 feet of clearance provide room for a boat, additional vehicles, a workshop, exercise area, hobbies and storage. A separate two-car side-entry garage provides everyday parking. Outside, the saltwater pool sits above the natural landscape, with privacy fencing along the sides while leaving the view open toward the trees and canal below. It feels private without closing you off from the setting that makes this property so special. Custom built in 2006, the home also has a 2022 roof. The home is currently assigned to Rock Ridge Elementary School, a 2024 National Blue Ribbon School. Space to live. Space to entertain. Room for the boat, cars and hobbies. And a screened porch, pool and Buckhorn Reservoir setting that may make you want to spend a lot more time at home.
