About this home

Elegant yet casual describe the upgrades in this in-town gem, located in prestigious Straus Park. The owner has spared no expense with help from a designer to make this home super warm and inviting. There's artistry in every detail. The open floor plan lends itself to easy entertaining, with the kitchen looking out into the light-filled living and dining rooms. On chilly evenings, gather round the stunning new contemporary gas fireplace with slate tile surround and floating walnut mantel. Leathered granite counters and a new farm sink enhance prep in the kitchen. Bask in the sun on the three season screened porch with new glass sliding doors. The main level primary suite feels like a true retreat, with a bathroom boasting a new soaker tub, and a shower adorned with a tiled mural of leafy vines. Completing the first floor are an office and guest bedroom with 2nd bathroom. The finished lower level offers much flexibility, with a 19'x16' media room with wood built-ins, plus two generous size bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms for ultimate comfort and privacy. Plenty of space for crafts and hobbies. Abundant storage in the unfinished area. This floor plan allows for easy, one level living, plus a lower level that can welcome a large family and friends. Hardwood floors throughout, with designer draperies and hardware adorning most rooms. ( See the complete list of thoughtfully curated updates to this lovely home.) The lot features mature shrubs and landscaping, maintained by the HOA, giving you more time to enjoy the numerous activities in Brevard, the tiny mountain town with a big lifestyle. Straus Park is a 315 acre pastoral and wooded development, with approximately 60 acres of community owned green space, a 6 acre lake, and hiking trails. It also has a clubhouse, an outdoor pool, tennis and Pickleball. Exit your short, level driveway and you are just 5 minutes to the hiking entrance in the National Forest, to the famous Brevard Summer Music Festival and breweries and restaurants.
