Architect-designed home offers many extras

- By Linda Garner-Bunch Advertisin­g Feature Writer

Hidden away in Sherwood’s gated Chimney Rock neighborho­od, this architect-designed home has five bedrooms, four full and two half baths, formal and casual living areas, an upstairs game room and more.

Beginning in the two-story foyer, polished wood plank floors continue through most of the main level. The entire home features heavy custom trimwork, and plantation shutters provide added privacy. Arched doorways lead to the main-level living areas.

Both the living and hearth rooms center around gas-start fireplaces and have custom built-in bookcases. The hearth room also features a wall of arched windows and opens to the brick patio. Pocket French doors link the two areas, while a wood plank ceiling unites the kitchen and hearth room. Upstairs, a carpeted game or play room offers additional living space.

The open kitchen is fitted with painted custom cabinetry, an L-shaped island/breakfast bar, granite counters, tile backsplash­es and a pantry. Stainlesss­teel appliances include a double oven, an electric cooktop, a dishwasher, a trash compactor and more. There is space for a casual dining area between the kitchen and the family room; there is also a formal, chandelier-lit dining room with elegant wainscotin­g.

Located on the main level, the large master bedroom has a hardwood floor and custom windows. The tiled bath includes a double vanity, a private water closet, a jetted tub, a separate shower, floor-to-ceiling built-ins, walk-in closets and more. The guest room is also positioned on the main level, while the other three bedrooms are upstairs. The carpeted bedrooms offer extensive built-ins and oversized closets. The remaining three baths are tiled and have marble vanities.

The spacious laundry room has extensive built-ins and opens to a storage area; there is also a mud room with builtin lockers and a half bath. The powder room, which features an elegant faux finish, is positioned just off the foyer.

A few of the home’s other amenities include front and back staircases, recessed and custom lighting, ceiling fans, top-of-the-line custom windows, extensive built-ins, floored attic storage space, a central vacuum, a security system, wiring for high-speed Internet, a sprinkler system, wood and iron fencing, a dog run, a workshop, an outside storage area and more. In addition to the two-car side-entry garage, there is a detached single garage.

This house, located at 451 Chimney Rock Drive in Sherwood, has about 5,205 square feet and is listed for $599,900 with Staci Medlock of CryeLeike Realtors, North Little Rock. No open house is planned for today. For more informatio­n or to schedule a private showing, call Medlock at 501-944-8687.
