Better Than New

“Like New” is great, you will move in and start enjoying the home the very first day. This home has been updated throughout including the Kitchen, Master Bath, Basement, New Wine Cellar, Exercise Room, Hearth Room, Butler’s Pantry, etc. – you get the point. And “New” means impeccably maintained; New Roof, New heating & cooling, New water heater, and water softener. It might as well be a new home. Except it is better than new. Compare the quality of the construction and finishes of this true custom-built home to current new construction and you’ll agree – this home is better than new.

From the moment you walk in the front door, you will be happy to find styling you have seen in the newest homes. The paint colors are current. The woodwork is current. The cabinets are current. The granite is current, etc. The amazing financial benefit with this current and updated home is it is a couple hundred thousand less than similarly sized homes in the newest neighborhoods. And yet it still has so much more to offer.

Updated kitchen and dining area with white cabinetry, granite counters, and bright blue island stools.

Updated open kitchen

The floor plan and layout are designed for the way your family lives. Big open spaces that flow throughout the main floor and basement. Your family is sure to congregate in the open Kitchen, Hearth Room and Eating Area, but the openness to the Great Room makes the space as free-flowing as any newly designed home. The basement is wide open and bright – sure to attract your children and their friends. And yet, there are plenty of private spaces. From the Den to the five bedrooms there are plenty of opportunities to retreat for some quiet me-time.

Living room with a white fireplace, vaulted ceiling, and tall windows overlooking trees.

Open Great Room

Finished interior with a dark-railed staircase, wood-look floors, and a furnished dining area with built-in cabinetry.

Open lower level with wet bar

Home office with built-in wood cabinetry, a desk, French doors, and decorative ceiling beams.

Den

Updated bathroom with a soaking tub, dual stone vanities, warm wood cabinetry, and a vaulted ceiling.

The entertaining potential sets this home apart. The large Kitchen and Hearth Room will certainly attract a crowd, but the true Butler’s Pantry (complete walk-in with serving counters and plenty of cabinetry) will make entertaining look professional and easy. However, the wine cellar may be an equal attraction; beautiful, spacious and airconditioned the capacity will certainly support the most discriminating connoisseur.

Butler’s Pantry

But the best may be yet to come – all the outdoor features. The Screened in porch will be your own retreat for a cup of coffee or after-hour entertaining. But once again it is the entertaining value of the backyard spaces that will amaze you. The deck, lower patio, and fire pit are sure to be where you will entertain when the whole crowd comes over on a beautiful afternoon or evening. Secluded with creek, mature trees and what seems to be your own “nature preserve” the enjoyment value is off the chart. No matter the season, your privacy is near complete.

Sunroom with large windows overlooking leafy woods, furnished with a round table and wicker chairs.

cul-de-sacs or walking half a block to the neighborhood pool, or entertaining their friends in the kid magnet basement this home is designed for family living. You really need to experience the home to understand.

Honestly, the list of features and benefits goes on and on and we have not even mentioned the location. A wonderful lot, on a quiet cul-de-sac, at the back of one of Carmel’s most desirable neighborhoods (Kings Mill) in southwest Carmel, just minutes away from the best schools (Towne Meadow Elementary, Creekside Middle School, and Carmel High School), convenient to Downtown Carmel, shopping, and an easy commute to work you can’t beat it. Come see for yourself. But, if you bring the kids, expect to stay a long time – possibly a lifetime.
