About This Home

Built in 2022 by Schumacher Homes, this beautifully crafted property sits on one of the largest lots in the area and offers a rare combination of thoughtful design, modern upgrades, and long-term structural integrity. From the ground up, this home was engineered to exceed expectations. It features a post-tensioned concrete slab supported by 66 driven piles extending 35 feet into natural soil and is designed to withstand 146 MPH wind loads (IBC 2015)—providing peace of mind that’s hard to find at this price point. Storm-ready with custom-cut hurricane protection plywood and pre-installed window anchoring for fast, secure installation. The exterior features durable fiber-cement siding over structural OSB sheathing, a 30-year architectural shingle roof, a spacious two-car attached garage, and an extended double-wide driveway. Inside, you’ll find 1,923 square feet of single-story living with an open, inviting floor plan. The home features luxury vinyl plank flooring, 9-foot ceilings, and ceiling fans throughout. The kitchen is the heart of the home, complete with a large walk-in pantry, white shaker cabinetry, a contrasting island with bar seating, Silestone quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, pendant lighting, and recessed lighting throughout. A bright, sun-filled flex space just off the kitchen offers versatility as a dining room, home office, or additional living area. The layout also includes a private primary suite, two additional bedrooms, a mudroom, and a dedicated laundry room. Designed with modern living in mind, the home is fully pre-wired with multiple Cat6 ethernet drops in every room, coax and attic antenna connections for TV access, in-ceiling speaker wiring, and dual-wired (coax/PoE) security camera capability. A whole-home generator transfer switch is already installed, making future backup power setup simple. Step outside to a truly exceptional backyard—measuring approximately 65 feet wide by 362 feet deep—offering space and privacy that’s incredibly rare on the West Bank with large, mature oak trees. The covered and screened outdoor kitchen is an entertainer’s dream, featuring a 4-burner 32” Blaze grill, dual side burners, kegerator, sink, and even a dedicated dog wash station with hot and cold water. Additional highlights include a 16x12 workshop with 100-amp electrical service and a 20-foot shipping container for added storage. No HOA.
