SELLERS WILL ENTERTAIN OFFERS ON VRM BETWEEN $489,000-$515,000. Welcome to our world!! Introducing our architect designed "English Country Cottage"! As the original owners, we find ourselves in a new season of parting which someone so eloquently described as a "sweet sorrow" as we leave behind so many years of "life well lived" in our much loved home. Everything regarding this house is totally custom with continued upgrades over the years. The latest was a completely redesigned kitchen installed just recently in 2023 before we got the crazy thought of moving! SO much brainstorming went into creating our ultimate "happy place" from tons of soft close drawers, ceiling height upper cabinets all with soft-gold tone hardware. Specially loving life time warranty Brizio faucet, pot filler and insta-hot...no more waiting on the kettle to boil! We got a bit carried away and repainted the whole house and replaced the boring white stair railings with black/bronze metal balusters. We think these are super fabulous especially looking up toward the 2nd floor balcony in the 20 ft 2-story foyer. The house features 4 bedrooms upstairs... 3 with en-suite bathrooms which offers 2 primary suites as well as a Jack-and-Jill option. Naturally a guest 1/2 bath downstairs. We originally kinda over did the amount of windows because this spectacular lot had us wanting "the outdoors in"!!Every room at the the back of the house has a fabulous view of the very private back yard. Double French doors from both the kitchen and living room open to a massive custom designed back deck featuring British Chippendale design railings and built in seating. The deck spans the width of the house, created for lavish entertaining and enjoyment of the private back yard...a secluded semi-cleared, semi wooded area with a living stream all stunningly created and designed by nature. Add tons of candles and party light ambience and you may never want to to come back inside! So our quaint little 3100 sq ft cottage pretty much features most bells and whistles including a whole house generator, irrigation system with an landscape architect designed circular front driveway and yard. Last but not least... with a roof pitch of 12/12, the massive attic is a 3rd story just begging to be converted! Mostly floored, it's also storage heaven! New insulation and a new updated duct system with 2 Ecoquest UV Air Purification systems using ActiveOx RCI technology recently installed. This technology is able to eliminate up to 99.99% of bacteria and fungi in it's operating area within 24 hrs. Both air conditioning systems have just been serviced and a 2 year preventative maintenance agreement will be transferred to new owners. Do pay us a visit, we are persuaded you will be so pleased that you did and we hope you love it all as much as we do! Seller is a licensed Realtor in the state of AL and MS.
