Property Description
Magnificent 4 bedroom contemporary sits on a secluded almost 2 acres with panoramic views of Hoopes Reservoir and bordering Valley Garden Park. A circular drive welcomes you to the grand stone, glass and cedar exterior. Walk on the stone patio and through the double front doors into the dramatic two story foyer with indoor garden and curved wood staircase. Through the stone archway on your right is the open and airy great room. This room has beautiful pine-covered high ceilings and pegged pine floors. With sliding doors and large window, including a 2 story wall of windows, the room is bathed in light and displays the beautiful landscape. You will enjoy watching 30 species of birds, including bald eagles. The home is fantastic for entertaining with the great room able to comfortably host large parties without feeling crowded. In this open floor plan, the dining area and breakfast nook are both part of the great room and flow into a newly-renovated kitchen. The kitchen has an eye-catching ten foot long brick and granite arched pass-through, large butcher block island, and stunning backsplash. You and your guests can relax on the cantilevered deck, which runs the length of the great room, overlooking the stone wall and rolling hills, or relax inside by the gas fireplace set against a wall of stone. The many architectural features set this house apart. Upstairs, the master suite is a sanctuary, with a balcony looking out over the reservoir. New master bath includes a long, double-sink vanity, striking stand-alone bathtub, and a huge walk-in shower with classic white subway tile and Carrera marble. The bathroom's windows and skylight let in loads of natural light. The suite also offers a newly-renovated, enormous walk-in closet. 1 of the 2 bedrooms on the main level connects to a full bath; both bedrooms have pine floors and are flooded in light. Large basement bedroom is currently being used as an exercise room. The property includes a big laundry/mud room leading to an attached 2 car garage. Plenty of storage exists, including a detached garage, large basement and many closets. A back-up propane generator runs almost everything. The property has a pleasing combination of mature trees, open lawn, and specimen flowers and shrubs. A small creek leads into the reservoir from the historic springhouse on the property. While the house sits in a quiet cul-de-sac, with only five houses accessible from the private road, you are not far from amenities of Greenville.
