Property Description

Perched high in the prestigious community of Highpoint at St. Georges, this immaculate 5,300+ sq. ft. luxury residence offers elegance, comfort, and exceptional living both indoors and out. Situated on a perfectly level lot, this 8-year-young 5-bedroom, 5-bath Toll Brothers Langley II Georgian model blends timeless architecture with thoughtful design and high-end finishes throughout. Meticulously maintained and in above-average condition, the home reflects true pride of ownership. The exterior features maintenance-free brick and vinyl siding, an expansive driveway, and a 20' x 41' attached three-car garage with an additional storage extension. Inside, a dramatic two-story foyer welcomes you with a motorized telescoping ceiling fan and a striking all-wood butterfly staircase with wrought-iron railing. The foyer is flanked by a 14' x 15' formal living room with transom windows and a 14' x 22' formal dining room featuring a tray ceiling, arched entries, and elegant decorative moldings. At the heart of the home is the beautifully designed gourmet chef's kitchen, illuminated by recessed lighting and appointed with upgraded Century soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, tile backsplash, a five-burner gas range, and KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, including a refrigerator with ice maker and microwave/oven combo. The 6-foot center island provides additional storage and electrical access, while the 11' x 18' breakfast nook offers a bright and inviting space for casual dining. Setting the tone, the grand staircase overlooks the impressive 16' x 25' great room, featuring a cozy gas fireplace, abundant natural light from multiple windows, and picturesque views of the rear yard. The main level also includes a 11' x 13' guest bedroom or home office with an adjoining full bath and walk-in shower. The pantry and storage closet complete the kitchen. To the right of the kitchen is the 6x10 ft. laundry room equipped with Kenmore Elite large capacity washer and dryer, utility sink and exterior access. Hardwood flooring enhances the foyer, kitchen, and powder room, while the living room, dining room, and two-story family room feature plush carpeting. The laundry room is finished with tile flooring. From the kitchen, step outside onto a beautifully designed patio that blends seamlessly with the landscaped yard. Complete with built-in seating and low-voltage lighting, this outdoor space is perfect for entertaining or relaxing while enjoying the spring, summer, and fall seasons. Upstairs, accessible from two staircases, the luxurious primary suite offers a true private retreat. Enter through a 13' x 14' sitting room leading into the 20' x 14' bedroom featuring a coffered ceiling and recessed lighting. An 8x24 ft. dressing hall includes a granite-topped vanity, mirror, and three oversized walk-in closets. The spa-inspired en-suite bath features a triple vanity with double sinks, linen closet, private water closet, walk-in shower with upgraded glass enclosure, expansive soaking tub, vaulted ceiling, and ceiling fan. Princess bedroom #2 includes its own walk-in closet and private full bath with shower, while Bedrooms 3 and 4 complete the upper level. The living space continues in the finished walkout basement, offering a 14' x 12' bedroom, 5' x 8' full bath, and a spacious 36' x 39' recreation room ideal for entertaining or multi-generational living. Two additional unfinished areas—22' x 27' storage space and a 21' x 17' storage/utility room—provide excellent storage or the opportunity to create a hobby room, gym, or additional finished space. This exceptional home combines luxury, space, and functionality in one of the area's most desirable communities.
