Set on a slight knoll at the end of the Stanyan Place cul-de-sac, backing up to the Big Creek Greenway natural area, this home commands admiration! Big, bold, beautiful, & fully updated, these kinds of homes are few and far between. The floor plan is open & spacious, starting with the gracious 2-story foyer flanked by a music/living room & dining room. You are drawn into the 2-story family room by an impressive slightly curved wall of windows, a 2-story stacked-stone fireplace, and symmetrical bookshelves on either side...directly open to the kitchen that features a huge island w/marble top, clearly "home base." Elementstone Whitehaven quartz counters, updated white cabinets w/some glass, and a neutral backsplash keep the lines clean, simple, and elegant. A guest bedroom and full bath are tucked behind the kitchen for privacy; and there is a separate half-bath for guests. Upstairs, the primary suite has been rearranged to accommodate a fireplace w/inset-mounted TV, a sitting area w/built-in desk, an organized spacious closet, and a bathroom that is sure to please...truly an owner's retreat! Add to that 3 additional large bedrooms & 2 full baths, all very comfortable. Downstairs, the terrace level is your own Scottish pub! Features include a clubby bar w/kegger and full kitchen appliances, a wine cellar, stone walls wrapping around a theatre-like TV, a perfect card table zone w/3rd fireplace, unique wooden tray ceilings, 2 bedrooms (one being used as an exercise room) and 2 (yes, 2) full baths...yet there is still ample unfinished space & built-in shelving for storage. Out back, the Trex deck stretches across the entire main level, and includes an outdoor kitchen & grill; below, you have a large covered stone patio, beautiful landscaping, and steps leading to your own private screened gazebo overlooking the pristine forest behind the Big Creek natural area. The fenced yard handles pets well, and there's plenty of level area for playing. Infrastructure-wise, this home compares favorably to all others: windows replaced 2021 - 2023, roof 2023, 2 brand new HVAC systems w/infrared filtration, main fireplace upgraded 2024, freshly painted inside & out...the list goes on and on! All this located in the Thornberry neighborhood that includes swim & tennis and proximity to shopping, great restaurants, and natural amenities. It's clear the current owners of 25 years have loved, maintained, and upgraded this special home - their pride of ownership will now be passed on to another caring buyer!
