This lovely home, located on the golf course in The Preserve at Jordan Lake, has the perfect floor plan - complete with a first-floor primary suite that feels as though you have just stepped into a resort hotel! The sellers, who are very conscientious homeowners, have spared no expense in preparing this well-maintained property for market. In addition to paying for a pre-listing home inspection, the sellers hired a licensed general contractor to handle all of the repairs on their list. This hard work, completed on the front end, makes this home move-in ready, for sure. The home also includes beautiful new light fixtures - including the fabulous ceiling fixtures in the kitchen, foyer, and stairwell - all of which adds an updated touch of glam to the home. This delightful property is bright and airy! The interior has just been repainted (walls, ceiling, trim, kitchen cabinets, primary bathroom cabinets) with a beautiful combination of various shades of white that maximize the flow of the natural light throughout the home. Over the years, these homeowners have also spared no expense on the outdoor areas of the home. They have invested tremendous amounts of money in landscaping and hardscaping - with a focus on installing mature, impactful trees and shrubs: all with the goal in mind (and successfully achieved) of providing optimum privacy on the lot. It makes this property a true gem! In the backyard, there is a wonderful oasis for gathering with family and friends. It is the perfect place for a relaxing evening on the back porch - or by the fire pit at the edge of the lush backyard - watching the golfers as they finish their late-afternoon rounds. Further maximizing the enjoyment of the outside entertaining space is a screened porch, which can be accessed directly from the first-floor primary suite. This brilliant addition to the floor plan makes the screened porch a perfect place to read the morning paper while sipping your coffee or have a glass of wine to wind down in the evening. Also on the first floor, there is a wonderful chef's kitchen with a bright, sunny casual dining area, a terrific kitchen island, plentiful storage, and a great serving area leading into the dining room. The family room is fabulous, with a beautiful, gas-log fireplace; the dining room is delightful. It is flooded with natural light during the day, but it has a gorgeous chandelier that makes the room truly glow in the evenings. There is also a guest bedroom on the first floor with its own bathroom en suite. This room is currently used as an office - and working from home in this space would make any workday a breeze! Speaking of breezes: on the second floor, there is an exquisite sitting porch - looking out over two different holes on the golf course - that is a wonderful addition to the architecture of this home. This gracious porch can be accessed directly from the second-floor hallway or from one of the private, corner guest rooms. In total, there are five bedrooms in this home: three on the second floor (two of which have bathrooms en suite); another guest bedroom on the first floor (with a bathroom en suite); and the primary suite on the first floor. From one of the second-floor bedrooms, there is also access to a walk-up attic. The sellers finished this space after they bought the home, but it is not included in the living area square footage, which was professionally measured. Rounding out this perfect home house is a terrific mudroom and laundry room off the kitchen - just a few short steps from the detached, two-car garage - and there is also a powder room on the first floor that is not to be missed! The sellers decided not to paint it, because the walls in that room are a truly a piece of art. With lovely spaces inside and out, this home in The Preserve at Jordan Lake offers the best in function, form and style. It is a must see!

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
