Ranch with finished basement set along golf course fairway.

- By Kathy Tyler Contributi­ng Writer

Soaring ceilings, walls of windows and an elevated paver-brick patio offer panoramic views of the tailored landscaped back yard and golf course from this custom-built patio home.

Listed for $519,000 by Bechtel Realtors, the stucco ranch 1248 Courtyard Place in Centervill­e has about 4,200 square feet of living space, including a finished basement. The house sits on a cul-de-sac within the Yankee Trace community along the 17th fairway. A concrete drive leads to the two-car garage and the formal front entry with leadedglas­s doors.

Soaring ceilings and walls of windows add to the openness of the floor plan. The foyer has a cathedral ceiling with a grand chandelier. Ceramic-tile flooring fills the foyer and wraps around into a walkway that leads to the kitchen and breakfast room.

To the left of the foyer, the formal dining room has a cathedral ceiling, a wall of windows, some of which are covered with plantation blinds and double doors that provide access to the kitchen.

To the right of the foyer, French doors open into a secluded study, which has a cathedral ceiling, a wall of windows and a wall of builtin bookcases.

The great room has a cathedral ceiling, allowing for a two-story wall of windows that looks out over the back yard and golf course. A gas fireplace has an ornate wood mantel and ceramictil­e surround. Spindles accent the stairwell that leads to the finished lower level.

Off the great room is the kitchen and breakfast room. The kitchen is filled with

antique-white cabinetry, which is complement­ed by granite countertop­s. There is a double sink and double wall ovens and a pantry. A mosaic artwork accents the wall above the corner range, and wood panels cover the refrigerat­or and dishwasher. A deep tray ceiling is above the island, which offers additional storage and continues over the breakfast room, which is filled with natural light.

A four-season sunroom is off the breakfast room and features three walls of windows and canister lights. A patio door opens to a circular, elevated paver-brick patio, which is accented by a short stone wall. Stone steps lead down from the patio to the back yard.

Three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and the laundry room are on the main level. The main bedroom has a tray ceiling, a builtin storage and media nook and a private bathroom, which features a doublesink vanity, a whirlpool tub, a walk-in closet and a separate room with walk-in shower and toilet.

The laundry room features a hanging cabinetry, a wash sink with folding counter and ceramic-tile flooring. Interior access to the garage is at the end of the hallway.

Downstairs, the stairwell ends within a recreation room, which has ceramictil­e flooring and an egress window. Along one wall is a built-in media center with bookcases and an extended counter with wet bar and mini-refrigerat­or. Two bedrooms and a full bath are located down a hallway from the recreation room. Both bedrooms have egress windows and double-door closets.
