Listed By Long & Foster

This is a very pretty home in the Lake Normandy Estates community. Well kept and updated, this home has a contemporary feel. Those with a penchant for contemporary homes will love what this home has to offer.

The lot is a beautiful corner lot with a large front lawn. The landscaping is minimal with a few lovely specimen trees. The front door and porch is covered, providing shelter for arriving guests and the FedEx man.

The large double door bring you into a large central foyer. The ceiling is cathedral here, giving volume to the space and adding to its contemporary feel. The tile floor is a bit antiseptic, but works well with the contemporary design. There is a decent size dining room to your left with an open wall to the foyer. If you are looking for formality in a home, this one is not your style.

The kitchen is recently re-done and is quality work. Very modern, there is not a lot of ornamentation. The appliances are high end, and the counters beautifully done. I cannot imagine anyone not liking what the kitchen has to offer.

There is a large laundry room and storage adjacent to the kitchen. The space is bright and clean with an exterior exit. The ceilings are high which add to the spacious and comfortable feel to this room.

There is a large deck on the back of the home off the kitchen. Made with TREX style decking, the owners of this home have quality materials in all improvements. I suspect that this home will not have too many problems on home inspection. Too much care is taken on a day to day basis to keep this home clean and up to date.

The master bedroom is on the first floor and includes a large bedroom, a sitting area and a nice sized master bath with soaking tub. Once again, clean lines and quality materials. Very nicely done. There are 2 additional bedrooms on this level which share an additional full bath.

To get to the lower level you travel back to the foyer. An open stair, wide with a natural wood banister take you down to the basement. The space is large, it looks to be the entire footprint of the home. There is a large family room with fireplace here. There are also 2 additional bedrooms and 2 full baths. There is an exercise area and a room used for music by the kids. The basement is walk-out and allows decent light.

This is a very nice home in a nice community on a nice lot. It will appeal to those that like simple modern design and clean lines. The price is a bit steep for this neighborhood. New to the market, the sellers may be feeling things out or hoping someone falls in love with it. It is attractive and will sell, but at what price. Look for $975k to $1mm when settlement day comes.
