Welcome to this beautifully expanded 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom Kendall model in the highly coveted University Park Village 2, nestled within the prestigious University High School boundary. Charming pavers lead to a classic Dutch door, opening to a hexagon Spanish tile entry and living room with an adjacent custom built-in bookshelf. The main level perfectly blends elegance and comfort, boasting crown molding, new recessed lighting, dual-pane windows, a convenient powder room, and a cozy fireplace with a custom white panel mantle. The kitchen features tasteful teal and white panel cabinetry, a lazy Susan, a pantry with pull-outs, tile countertops, a stainless steel Samsung range, and a Maytag dishwasher. Three sets of French doors (2 vinyl, 1 rustic wood) open directly to the backyard, showcasing serene, unobstructed views of the expansive community greenbelt and park.

Ascend the wooden staircase with its pine railing to find modern vinyl plank flooring throughout the second level. The extra-large primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring its own fireplace, a quiet retreat with a built-in desk, a walk-in closet plus two wardrobe closets, and crank paneled windows overlooking the park. Its en-suite bathroom offers a dual-vanity sink, tile floors, a walk-in shower, and a bright skylight. Three additional spacious bedrooms feature crank paneled windows for optimal airflow: the front west bedroom is extra-long with light sage paint and a built-in bookcase; the front east bedroom includes mirrored wardrobe doors with a partial closet organizer; and the rear west bedroom frames beautiful views of the greenbelt. The hallway offers extensive wardrobe storage, attic ladder access, and a secondary bathroom complete with a dual vanity, beautiful white and blue mosaic tile, a skylight, and a shower-tub enclosure.

This home offers excellent peace of mind with a full repipe (2009), HVAC (2007), and a relined sewer line clean-out running down the sidewalk (2023). Enjoy an unparalleled outdoor lifestyle with 47 acres of lush greenbelts, parks, and walking trails right outside your door on Leatherwood.
