A private backyard retreat, resort-style saltwater pool, and expansive entertaining spaces set this exceptional two-story brick home apart in Hardwood Forest. Designed for both everyday living and memorable gatherings, the home opens to a dramatic two-story great room where floor-to-ceiling windows frame the backyard and fill the space with natural light. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the great room, creating an ideal setting for hosting. An oversized island, abundant cabinetry, and an expansive eat-in area support everything from casual weeknights to holiday celebrations. Currently used as an office, the formal dining room with classic trim detail offers flexibility and an elegant setting for special occasions. The first-floor primary suite delivers privacy and comfort with a spacious walk-in closet and a beautifully updated bath featuring heated and cooled floors, dual vanities, a sleek walk-in shower, and an integrated Bluetooth sound system—luxury touches that elevate the everyday experience. The lower level was designed with recreation and relaxation in mind. A dedicated theater room with surround sound and retractable shades provides a true cinema experience for movie nights and game days. The adjoining recreation space with pool table (remains), bar area, and wine fridge creates a natural hub for entertaining. A full bath, a versatile bonus room that can serve as a gym, office, or guest suite, and generous storage complete the lower level. Outdoors, the saltwater pool serves as the centerpiece of a private backyard retreat. Multiple seating areas, a fire pit, and outdoor media setup create a resort-style setting framed by a natural buffer of mature trees that provides uncommon privacy from neighboring homes. The extended driveway offers additional parking and flexibility for guests, complementing the home's impressive curb appeal. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and a Jack-and-Jill bath provide comfortable accommodations for family or visitors. Additional features include a home security system, a one-year-old HVAC system with transferable warranty, and a hot water heater with transferable warranty. The HOA handles snow removal, and residents enjoy easy access to the lake, walking trails, and abundant wildlife at nearby Waverly Park. With thoughtfully upgraded finishes, luxury details not often found in the neighborhood, and a backyard designed for both privacy and celebration, this Hardwood Forest residence offers a level of comfort and entertaining potential that truly stands apart.
