**CUSTOM BUILT by a Custom Home Builder for his own family--an exceptional residence that would cost substantially more to replicate today.** Unlike many homes built for resale, this one was thoughtfully designed with premium materials, superior craftsmanship, and long-term quality in mind. Offering 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, this remarkable home delivers an impressive blend of luxury, comfort, and everyday functionality. At its heart is a chef's kitchen that is sure to impress, featuring premium quartz countertops, custom cabinetry with specialty storage, top-tier appliances, and a residential/commercial-grade dual-fuel range paired with a professional vent hood. Every detail was carefully planned to create a space that is as beautiful as it is functional. The main living areas showcase coffered ceilings, extensive crown molding, custom wood accents, recessed lighting, solid wood interior doors, and high-end flooring throughout. The spacious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with custom ceiling details, ambient lighting, and a beautifully appointed spa-inspired bath designed with both comfort and elegance in mind. Built to a higher standard, the home features 2x6 exterior wall construction, upgraded insulation, a two-zone Trane high-efficiency HVAC system, a Rinnai tankless propane water heater, smart thermostats and switches, tilt double-hung windows, and oversized insulated garage doors. Every major system and construction detail reflects the pride and foresight of a builder creating a forever home rather than simply another house to sell. The oversized three-car garage, offering more than 1,000 square feet, is a standout feature all its own. Finished to the same high standards as the living areas, it includes custom cabinetry, exceptional built-in storage, and a dedicated workshop space. Whether you're a craftsman, car enthusiast, boater, or simply appreciate an organized workspace, this garage offers possibilities rarely found in today's market. Designed for coastal living, the exterior is equally impressive with architectural shingles, attractive Board & Batten accents, an oversized concrete driveway, a 50-amp RV hookup, exterior gas grill connection, generator receptacle, flood lighting, gutters with gutter guards, and a premium screened porch system built for long-lasting durability and year-round enjoyment.
