Country abode

Custom home is just minutes from Hot Springs

Offering a peaceful country setting on 4.20 acres, this custom-built home has two bedrooms, two-and-a half baths, a game room, an office, an above-ground pool and more.

The classic front porch has two ceiling fans and is accented with rock and wood-beam columns. Hardwood floors begin in the foyer and continue into the living room, dining area and game room.

A rock woodburning, gas-start fireplace is the focal point of the living room. The game room features built-in cabinets, a game closet and glass doors that lead to the deck and pool area.

Stained-wood custom cabinetry and solid-surface counters define the kitchen, which is set apart from the dining area by a peninsula bar. The workspace is floored in stone-look tile and has a refrigerator, a dishwasher, a microwave and an electric stove with a smooth-surface cooktop. Just off the kitchen, the tiled laundry room has a built-in desk and cabinets.

Both bedrooms are master suites. The main-level suite has a carpeted bedroom with a walk-in closet and private access to the deck, as well as a separate office with two closets. The bath offers his-and-hers vanities, a soaking tub with a hand shower and whirlpool and air jets, and a multihead shower with body jets. The home’s upper level houses a loft-style bedroom suite with a large sitting area and a walkin closet. The adjoining bath has a double vanity and a multi-head shower.

The open garage can accommodate four vehicles and has plenty of space for a handyman’s workshop. Above the garage is a large, floored attic that could easily be finished for additional living space. Other amenities of the home include stain-grade wood trim and built-ins, topof-the-line windows and doors, a half bath, a security system with four exterior cameras, 2-inch wood blinds and more.

This house, located at 259 Kingery Lane in Royal, has about 2,684 square feet and is listed for $335,000 with Pat Jones of Coldwell Banker RPM, Hot Springs. No open house is planned for today. For more information or to schedule a private showing, call Jones at 501-620-2094.
