The best blend of privacy and community, this home feels like a true retreat, tucked down a private drive in the close-knit, gated Cedar Hollow community of just 25 homes. Set on a half-acre between protected greenbelts, the property provides rare tranquility with preserved wetlands both in front and behind the home.

Designed for effortless living and entertaining, the main level features a beautiful kitchen centered around a generous island and open layout extending to the living and dining rooms. The living area flows seamlessly to a covered deck with an outdoor fireplace for year-round enjoyment. Cozy fall evenings, summer dinners, and quiet mornings all overlook the expansive yard. A main-floor office and a functional mudroom connecting to the finished 3 car garage add everyday convenience. Upstairs, the serene primary suite includes custom closet built-ins and an attached bathroom, joined by 3 additional beds, laundry room, extra bath, and a versatile bonus room. Tucked away, the driveway offers ample guest parking, while the neighborhood features a scenic lake and tranquil walking trails.
