Picture afternoons on the front porch with sweet tea in hand, hydrangeas in bloom, and gatherings that feel both effortless and refined, where pearls, conversation, and Southern charm set the tone. Thoughtfully updated for both beauty and peace of mind, this home is rich in improvements. A new roof was installed in 2023, along with a Rinnai natural gas tankless water heater (2025), Bosch gas pack downstairs (2026), and a Trane heat pump upstairs (2024). The crawlspace has been fully encapsulated with a dehumidifier (2025), and the home is protected by a termite bond with Manning's Pest Control. A 30kW water-cooled Generac generator with automatic transfer switch provides standby power to the entire first floor, including HVAC and appliances, offering an added layer of confidence and comfort. Step inside to a welcoming foyer where new flooring, custom millwork, and architectural detailing immediately establish a sense of warmth and tradition. Plantation shutters throughout, triple crown molding, chair rail, dentil molding, and a filigree tray ceiling in the dining room elevate the interior with classic design elements. The formal dining room flows seamlessly into the family room, where built-in bookcases, a gas fireplace, and expansive windows create an inviting space for gathering. At the center of the home, the kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a bright breakfast nook that opens into a sunlit sitting area filled with windows. Appliances include a KitchenAid dual-fuel range with natural gas burners and electric double ovens, a new Frigidaire refrigerator (2025), and a new Frigidaire dishwasher (2026). The main-level primary suite offers a spacious and private retreat with a beautifully renovated bath featuring a marble tile walk-in shower with dual showerheads and rain feature, soaking tub, quartz-topped dual vanities, private water closet, and a custom walk-in closet with built-in shelving and drawers. A guest bedroom and full bath with walk-in shower on the main level provide excellent flexibility for visitors, a home office, or multigenerational living. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms with large dormers allow for natural light and additional space, connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath with dual vanities and a walk-in shower, along with an additional half bath. A media room with built-in bookcases offers a cozy retreat, while the oversized bonus room over the garage--complete with skylights, a large picture window, mini-split system, and walk-in attic access--provides endless possibilities for a fitness room, studio, or additional living area. Outdoor living is just as impressive. The expansive Trex deck offers multiple seating areas, two separate fire pit spaces, and an outdoor kitchen equipped with a Big Green Egg smoker, Blaze grill, cabinetry, outlets, and storage. The fully fenced backyard is beautifully landscaped with mature greenery and stately live oak trees, creating a private, serene setting reminiscent of a Southern garden.
