Step into this beautifully crafted custom home on over 1/3 acre in desired Forest Hills - just a short walk to Center Grove schools. The soaring two story entry and leaded glass front door with sidelights set an impressive tone from the moment you arrive. With five bedrooms and three and a half baths, the layout offers the space and flexibility today's lifestyle demands. Hardwood floors carry through the breakfast area, kitchen and laundry, where rich cherry cabinetry, a pantry, breakfast bar, smooth surface range and built in microwave make the kitchen both functional and inviting. A formal dining room is ready for holidays and gatherings or can be used as a home office. The main level primary suite feels like a true retreat with double vanities, a walk in shower, garden tub and generous walk in closet. Upstairs, one of the secondary bedrooms has been reimagined as an incredible oversized dressing closet worthy of a boutique, yet can easily be returned to a traditional bedroom if desired. The finished basement expands the living space with a large family room, full bath, exercise room or additional office or guest room and outstanding storage. Additional highlights include a spacious laundry room with utility sink, tankless water heater, water softener and storage on every level. Outside, new wood decking overlooks a private yard framed by mature trees complete with an irrigation system, creating the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining. This is a home where thoughtful design, solid construction and meticulous care are evident at every turn.
