Description

Tucked in the highly desirable Woodcreek neighborhood within the award-winning Red Clay School District, this stunning home sits quietly at the end of a cul-de-sac beside the entrance to picturesque wooded trails. It’s the perfect blend of modern updates, timeless design, and peaceful surroundings — a true hidden gem. Step inside to find luxury meets livability: a welcoming entryway with elegant herringbone tile flooring, leading into an open, light-filled floor plan that makes entertaining effortless. The spacious family room features a charming bay window, while the dining area flows seamlessly into a modern updated kitchen with a large island, modern finishes, and expansive views of the tranquil woods beyond. The living room is a showstopper — featuring a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, cathedral ceilings, and a skylight that bathes the space in natural light. A quaint built-in bar adds a touch of sophistication for hosting gatherings or enjoying a quiet evening in. A convenient first-floor laundry room and two-car garage add everyday ease and function. Upstairs, retreat to your private primary suite, complete with a walk-in closet, additional closet, and a spa-inspired en suite bath featuring gorgeous new tilework and abundant storage. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated full hall bath complete the upper level. The fully finished walkout basement is nothing short of impressive — with new LVP flooring, fresh paint, and plenty of windows that make it feel like main-level living. There’s also a flex space currently used for a sauna, office, and gym — offering endless potential for customization and potential for a 5th bedroom. Step outside to your own backyard oasis: a two-tier deck perfect for relaxing or entertaining, complete with electric setup for a 3 TVs, a built-in playhouse, and an additional stone patio area ideal for fireside nights under the stars. The fenced, tree-lined yard backs to a babbling creek and natural woodland, creating a peaceful, private setting rarely found in such a convenient location. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed — from the modern aesthetic and natural light to the functional spaces that make everyday living feel effortless. Experience the perfect balance of modern updates, nature’s tranquility, and community charm in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the area.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
