Why wait on new construction when you can have better than new now! If you're looking for a fresh start for the New Year, you have to check this home out! This barely-lived-in, quality-built home is less than 2 years young and feels fresh, flawless, and move-in ready… without the delays, dust, or design-center decision fatigue. Designed with today’s buyers in mind, the open-concept layout flows effortlessly and gives everyone room to gather, relax, and actually live. The Chef's kitchen is the heart of the home and boy, does it deliver with an oversized center island with breakfast bar, granite countertops, Delta faucets, custom range hood, pantry, and generous cabinet space that says yes, you can have it all. The great room brings the wow factor with a tray ceiling, cozy gas fireplace, and oversized sliding patio door leading to a covered back patio perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, or hosting without trying too hard. The primary suite is thoughtfully tucked away for privacy and features a spa-inspired bath with a tiled walk-in shower, double vanity, and walk-in closet that won’t leave you negotiating space. Two additional bedrooms sit on the opposite side of the home perfect for guests, kids, or a home office setup. Downstairs? Fully finished and ready to impress. A spacious family/rec room, coffee bar area, third full bath, and fourth bedroom with egress make this lower level perfect for guests, teens, or multi-generational living and to top it off, there’s still plenty of storage (because real life needs it). Extras you don’t always get with new builds: premium paint, 30-year architectural shingles, R-49 ceiling insulation, Quaker Low-E windows, and thoughtful upgrades throughout. And the location? Just blissful, offering easy interstate access, close to shopping, dining, and Scott AFB, all the convenience without sacrificing comfort. Bottom line: this is the kind of home buyers wait for… or miss.
