Originally crafted as a custom builder's personal sanctuary, this all-brick residence has been cherished by only one other owner--an engineer who has maintained the property with the highest level of care. Detailed maintenance records are available offering rare peace of mind that allows you to simply settle in and breathe. While the craftsmanship is evident throughout, the true heartbeat of this home is the enclosed brick courtyard. Encased by a classic privacy wall, this secret garden serves as an outdoor living room where the morning sun hits just right for coffee, and the evening air stays still and quiet. With plenty of yard beyond for fencing or creating your own backyard oasis. Follow the elegant paver pathways beyond the wall to find a secondary patio area and a curated small garden--perfect for those who want a touch of nature without the burden of heavy yard work. Inside, the home balances ''sweet and comfortable'' with ''refined and spacious.'' The layout is designed for both easy living and effortless hosting. A flowing floor plan featuring 3 generous bedrooms, a private den with fireplace for quiet afternoons, and a versatile bonus room over the garage. A massive laundry room is equipped with custom built-in cabinetry that would make a professional organizer swoon. True to its builder/engineer lineage, the home is packed with clever storage solutions at every turn. A dream for the hobbyist, this oversized garage features built-in storage systems, a dedicated storage closet, and a convenient pedestrian door. Located in a vibrant, gated community that feels more like a year-round resort, life here revolves around the crystal-clear, spring-fed Lake Auman. Whether you are an early-morning paddleboarder, a weekend sailor, or a competitive fisherman, the water is your playground. Additional amenities include: tennis and pickleball courts, community pool, and modern playgrounds. Popular West End schools! Call today because you do not want to miss this one!
