About This Home

Step into a home that quietly solves the problems most others can't-space, storage, privacy, and peace of mind-while delivering the kind of setting and craftsmanship that's simply unforgettable. Set on 1.19 acres across two parcels in desirable Sleepy Hollow, this 5,183 sqft. custom home backs to a tranquil bird sanctuary and Jelke Creek, offering a rare blend of nature, privacy, and scenic beauty. Imagine mornings by your own koi pond, evenings on the deck surrounded by trees, and direct access to nearby conservation trails-this is a lifestyle, not just a home. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the care and investment poured into the property, including new siding and gutters, along with a newer roof and skylights (2019), ensuring both curb appeal and long-term confidence. Inside, the home unfolds with warmth and intention. Hardwood floors run throughout the main level, guiding you from a spacious front living room into a dining area designed for effortless entertaining. At the heart of it all is a beautifully remodeled kitchen featuring a farmhouse sink, granite countertops, marble backsplash, handcrafted custom cabinetry, a mahogany-topped coffee bar, and high-end stainless-steel appliances-every detail thoughtfully curated. The adjacent family room invites you to unwind, anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace (with gas starter and built-in ash pit) and framed by tranquil backyard views. With 5 bedrooms plus a first-floor den (ideal as an office or 6th bedroom) and 3.1 baths, the layout offers flexibility for any lifestyle. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a sitting area, walk-in closet, and a beautifully updated bath. Additional bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled, including a standout second full bath with floating dual vanities and a walk-in shower. One of the secondary bedrooms even includes a 10x16 bonus room-perfect for sleepovers, a lounge, or creative space. The finished walk-out basement expands your living space even further, offering a rec room, game area, wet bar, workshop, an additional bedroom, full bath, and-true to the theme of this home-an overabundance of storage, including an oversized storage room that keeps everything organized without compromise. It's an ideal setup for guests, in-laws, or extended stays. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone needing extra space will appreciate the massive, extra-wide and deep 2.5-car garage, with room to expand further by adding a side apron. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a multi-tiered deck and paver patio designed for gathering, relaxing, and taking in the breathtaking natural surroundings. Enjoy fireworks practically in your backyard along with Sleepy Hollow's community events. Beyond the home, Sleepy Hollow offers a true sense of community with neighborhood events, plus convenient access to the local pool, elementary school, and miles of scenic trails just steps from your backyard. This is more than a home - it's space to live fully, room to grow, and a setting you'll never want to leave with peace of mind knowing an HWA 13-month home warranty is in place. Welcome home.
