SLEEK INTERIOR
Recent model home has many upgraded features, like a pool.
It is not often that a “oneyear-new” home arrives on the market, especially one with everything from a sleek interior décor with designer lighting to a backyard heated swimming pool and a finished basement.
Retaining it’s like-new look, the two-story brick home at 2016 Stonewater Drive in Washington Twp. surprises with its many unusual features.
“This amazing 2017 MI Homes Bethany Model has been upgraded beyond belief. It’s one of the first homes to be built in the Wynstone community, so it’s a premium lot,” said Jamie Wilson of Coldwell Banker Heritage Realtors.
One co-owner said, “We added a butler’s pantry, finished half of the basement and added a fifth bedroom and a full bath.”
Other upgrades include special ceiling treatments, granite counters and a covered patio.
Offering more than 4,620 square feet of living space, the home is listed for $614,900.
Leaded glass sidelights and a wide transom surround the front door. Inside the T-shaped entry handscraped wood flooring in a slate gray hue complements walls painted in pale gray. Ornamental wrought iron spindles edge the extra-wide steps to the landing, and then the staircase changes direction to ascend to the loft area, which overlooks the great room on the opposite side.
French doors open to the living room, which is currently used as a study with double windows shaded by wide-slat blinds.
A three-window bay with plantation shutters enhances the open dining room, which receives additional natural light from two boxed square windows placed high on the side wall.
Double moldings frame the deep tray ceiling centered with a shiny steel rectangular chandelier, its shell in a diagonal weave pattern filled with pendent crystals that magnify its shimmering illumination.
The entry hall widens as it extends into the great room, which sits under a two-story coffered ceiling.
Three horizontal windows sit high near the ceiling above three large vertical windows, offering a panoramic view of green space and mature trees in the distance beyond the patio and pool.
Custom built-in millwork incorporates a raised gas fireplace with bookshelves, an art niche and an entertainment center.
The kitchen is separated from the great room by a wide center island topped in granite with an overhang for seating. A deep porcelain sink and the dishwasher are installed on the work-space side of the island.
The long back counter holds a five-burner gas cooktop under glass miniature tile backsplashes and white cabinets of varying heights with upper moldings. GE Profile microwave and conventional ovens are stacked together between upper cabinets and lower storage drawers.
Kitchen décor is matched in the butler’s pantry with a granite serving counter, white cabinets, wine rack, beverage cooler and a full storage pantry – all with easy access from the dining room, also.
The open breakfast area at the opposite end connects to the covered patio.
Seating and cubicle shelves are built into the mudroom, which accesses the garage and the laundry room.
Nearby is a half-bath with a pedestal sink.
A double tray ceiling, multiple boxed windows with up/down custom blinds, and a sitting area enhance the bedroom in the main floor suite.
Angled in a corner of the adjacent bath is an oversized step-in-shower with two shower heads and a long bench-style seat.
Rectangular shaped tile covers the walls complemented by a central mosaic tile border.
The granite-topped triple vanity is centered with a makeup station under two boxed horizontal windows. One of two walk-in closets features a tower of organizer drawers.
On the upper level is another suite with a private bath, which offers a garden tub surrounded in subway tile.
Two more bedrooms share the hall bath, which has tub and shower and a raised double vanity.
The fifth bedroom on the finished lower level has an egress window, a walk-in closet and direct access to the hall bath.
Neutral décor and recessed ceiling lights enhance the media/family room. A versatile extra room is currently used for exercise.
The utility room has plenty of space for storage and a workshop area.
