About this home

Meticulously maintained and move-in ready, this beautifully updated home offers the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and outdoor living in an unbeatable location near McAlpine Creek Greenway and Park. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be drawn to the soaring vaulted ceilings, open-concept layout, and stunning custom stone fireplace that anchors the main living space. The tastefully updated kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring modern finishes and separate built-in dining room cabinets complete with dual beverage refrigerators. Just off the kitchen, the screened covered rear porch creates the ideal setting to relax, entertain guests, or enjoy peaceful mornings surrounded by nature. This may become everyone’s new favorite hangout spot!

The main level offers four spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with an en-suite bath and walk-in closet. An additional living room/reading room with a built-in fireplace provides the perfect flex space for cozy nights in, a home office, or quiet retreat. Downstairs, you’ll find a fully functional secondary living area complete with a full kitchen, full bath, private exterior access, and ample living space—ideal for guest stays, multi-generational living, or added flexibility.

Outside is where this property truly shines. Situated on nearly half an acre, the backyard feels like your own private escape with mature wooded surroundings, a large firepit area, an outdoor shower, a playground set, and an additional storage shed with lighting. Whether entertaining friends, enjoying time outdoors, or simply unwinding after a long day, this backyard offers a rare slice of nature just minutes from everyday conveniences. Additionally, the unfinished basement area can serve as the perfect workshop, storage space, or whatever comes to someone's imagination.

Located less than five minutes from restaurants, grocery stores, and local coffee shops, with McAlpine Park and Greenway just a short walk away, and close proximity to MSA Swim, this home combines peaceful living with exceptional convenience.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
