Just Listed: Three Fully Finished Level Braemar Home for $699,000
They say when one door closes, another one opens. Well, in my Braemar real estate business it certainly is true. On September 9th (2022) my listing at 12607 Cessford Drive went to closing. The very next day, I got to introduce this Braemar single family home to the market at 9528 Ballgan Court.
Prior to listing the sellers got brand new carpet and installed LVP (luxury vinyl plank) flooring in the basement recreation areas. They even refurbished the expansive wood deck that spans the entire width of the home. All new decking, hand rails and some support beams were replaced vs. tearing down a deck that was weather worn and not in good condition. Why? Rather than spend the money on updating kitchen counters or bathroom finishes, the sellers improved a very important feature of this home. Kitchen and bathroom refinishing were not necessary to their function.
The Ravenwood floor plan by Ryan Homes is one that places formal living and formal dining rooms off of the foyer entry and walkway to the back of the home. Once you reach the back half of the home, this floor plan opens up in the very rooms that are the cornerstone to every day living.
At the heart of the action is one of the largest kitchens a buyer would normally find in a Braemar home of this size. Enjoy plenty of cabinets and counter space, including a center island. To the west, the kitchen is open to the sun room. To the south, the kitchen is open to the family room. Gorgeous sunsets can be seen from either room, or the deck off the sun room. And to make that outdoor space more enjoyable, there is a motorized retractable awning over one portion of the deck.
Upstairs four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms include the owner’s suite with attached bathroom. Tall, double sink vanity, a soaking tub and separate shower include the necessities of an owner’s bathroom. Second full bathroom has double sinks (not as common as you might think in a Braemar home of this size) and a tub/shower combo. It is located between the second and third bedrooms. Fourth bedroom, while farther from this hall bathroom rivals the size of the owner’s suite.
The “L” shaped recreation space in the basement would work well for zoned activities. Maybe a movie area and a game area? Or a work out area and bar/entertainment area? No matter what the next owner does with this space, they will have a full bathroom and additional fifth bedroom in this walk out level basement.
Outside, in addition to the aforementioned deck, there is a patio and the yard is fully fenced. The grading of the yard away from the home means water intrusion in the basement is practically impossible.
If this home sounds interesting, please reach out for a tour. This home is hitting a very sweet spot with regard to price, size and style and is not likely to linger on the market.
