Beautiful brick property backing to the 16th hole of the Award Winning Gary Player Designed Raspberry Falls Golf Course! Built in 2004 by Marquis Custom Homes, the luxury line of locally acclaimed builder Van Metre, this "Thoreau" Model home is spacious inside (over 7,000 SQFT), and outside (sitting on just over one acre), and is conveniently located in the heart of the neighborhood, moments away from the clubhouse, driving range, community pool and tennis courts!

Once you arrive, you will notice the generously sized front brick seated covered porch, which overlooks the putting green and driving range of the Raspberry Falls Golf Club (the clubhouse itself is visible in the fall and winter months). Before you make your way inside, meander to the back of the property and notice the tranquility of the lot, a natural sanctuary filled with lush grass and bushes, mature trees and a babbling brook leading to small engineered pond (see DOCUMENTS with detail about this project). With approximately 1,000 SQFT of outdoor hardscaping in the back of the home, there are two decks and a stone patio, where you can sit in peace with your coffee, tea, or glass of wine, or perhaps entertain family and friends in privacy! If you are patient, you will also observe a variety of wildlife on tour- from deer, to fox, to wild turkeys! Children of all ages especially love to run through this park-like area out back and a large plateau in the side of the hill can be used as a home for a playscape, a trampoline, a large raised garden, or even a private pickleball court. During the winter, this backyard offers good sledding opportunities and even training for new skiers and snowboarders, alike!

Once you go inside the home, you will LOVE the OPEN FLOOR PLAN! Outstanding amenities include a stunning 2-story foyer, surrounded by a spiral staircase, a 2-story family room with floor to ceiling stone fireplace + custom transom windows, a very large dining room, a butler's pantry, a formal living room, and a generously sized sunroom (within the past year, the owners have had the majority of the walls and ceilings of their home painted).

Upstairs, you will find four generously sized bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The primary bedroom includes a coffee bar and sitting room, two walk in closets, a large bath tub, and a separate tile shower. The basement is *almost* fully finished and includes a bar, a media room, a recreation room, a full bathroom, ample storage area, plus an exit to the backyard oasis.
