This week’s featured new home has four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. It sits on a mostly level, lightly treed 2.3-acre parcel at the Arlington Heights subdivision.
The home, which was built by LaMar Homes Inc., is located in an equestrian neighborhood that affords territorial views of the foothills facing Jim Creek.
Vitals include a private well, a septic system and a propane forced-air furnace and hot water tank. The property provides space for a barn and pasture if so desired.
Exterior amenities include James Hardie horizontal lap siding, cultured stone accents, an architectural composition roof, a side-entrance garage, dormer windows and a gabled roofline. An asphalt drive reaches an exposed aggregate parking pad and a partially covered, exposed aggregate rear patio.
A front door with leaded glass opens to a foyer decked with hardwood flooring that extends throughout much of the home. A home office is positioned to the immediate left and a formal dining room is on the opposite side.
Dining room features include hardwood flooring, a coffered ceiling with crown molding, wood wainscoting, wood-wrapped windows and a medallion centering an ornate chandelier.
A butler’s pantry that includes a marble top provides a buffer between the dining room and kitchen.
The kitchen has custom knotty alder cabinetry with crown molding. Other attributes include hardwood flooring, slab granite countertops, a ceramic tile backsplash that ascends to cabinet level, indirect lighting, an extended breakfast bar, a walk-in pantry, a stainless steel appliance package and a two-compartment, stainless steel undermount sink.
Adjacent to the kitchen is an informal nook eating area with sliding glass doors that open to an expansive patio designed for outdoor entertaining.
The main floor has a spectacular living room with a gas fireplace that has a rough-hewn wood mantel and floor-to-ceiling cultured stone. The room also benefits from a high vaulted ceiling, French doors and hardwood flooring.
The sleeping area in the sprawling bedroom suite is augmented by a five-piece bath and a walk-in wardrobe closet. The master bath features a tiled double vanity, an oversized soaker tub, a freestanding shower and a private water closet.
The three remaining bedrooms are all oversized and have huge closets and wood-wrapped windows. Located nearby are a full bathroom and a laundry room that has built-in overhead cabinets and a laundry tub.
A bonus room that’s situated above the garage provides a large area that could serve as a game room, an exercise area, a home theater or an artist’s studio.
The space benefits from a wealth of natural light and is supported by a three-quarter bathroom that saves unneeded trips down the stairs.
