About This Home

Welcome to Carriage Green! Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac and backing to the golf course, this impressive mostly brick home with Hardie Board accents offers timeless architecture, exceptional space, and picturesque views. Lovingly maintained, the exceptional architecture, expansive floor plan, and premier golf course setting provide the perfect canvas to renovate and create the custom home of your dreams. A two-story foyer with a sweeping curved staircase creates a grand first impression. The main level features a private office/den with custom built-in bookshelves, perfect for working from home. The soaring two-story family room is filled with natural light and showcases breathtaking golf course views, a marble fireplace, and a wet bar-ideal for entertaining family and friends. The recently updated kitchen offers white Omega cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, a glass tile backsplash, updated stainless steel appliances, including a KitchenAid industrial-style French door refrigerator (2018), and a spacious eating area that overlooks the family room. Step outside to the maintenance-free composite deck and enjoy the peaceful backyard setting. Convenience continues with a first-floor laundry room featuring a utility sink, updated washer and dryer, exterior access to the backyard, and direct access to the attached three-car garage. Upstairs, the primary suite is a relaxing retreat with a tray ceiling, panoramic golf course views, a spacious walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath with a Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. Bedroom two features its own private ensuite bath, while bedrooms three and four share a Jack-and-Jill bath with a dual-sink vanity and a separate room for the tub, shower, and commode. Additional highlights include abundant storage, elegant curved architectural details, a central vacuum system, and an irrigation system. The finished basement significantly expands the living space with a large recreation room, kitchenette, full bathroom, meditation room, and a versatile bonus room perfect for a home gym/playroom/hobby room/additional office. Please note that, to preserve the full enjoyment of the golf course view, fences are not permitted. A Home Warranty of America home warranty is included for added peace of mind.
