Whether you dream of a pool, garden, play area, or simply wide-open space, this lot offers a level of outdoor living that’s truly uncommon for 19803. Step inside to a bright, open layout filled with new flooring, designer details, and recessed lighting. The kitchen shines with white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, opening directly to the dining and living areas for easy entertaining. A sunny bonus room overlooks the sweeping backyard — perfect for morning coffee or quiet afternoons. The oversized family room offers even more space for work, play, or hosting gatherings. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms include a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet and a beautifully updated bath. The hall bath has been fully renovated as well. But the real showstopper is outside: a three-quarter-acre private oasis with endless room for outdoor living, pets, sports, or future additions. This yard simply doesn’t exist in most nearby neighborhoods. Additional features include a two-car garage, full basement, new water heater (2025), newer roof (2018), new kitchen and baths, refinished hardwoods, updated lighting, and fresh paint throughout.

Designed for buyers who value architecture beyond the ordinary, this striking contemporary home by The ReDevelopment Company stands apart from typical new construction. From the first approach, its thoughtful design makes a statement—featuring a side entry, distinctive window placements, and a modern garage door that hint at the intentional creativity found throughout. Upon entry, a deliberately compressed ceiling height creates a sense of anticipation, opening dramatically into a two-story stairwell highlighted by rising window heights and custom stair railings. This transition sets the tone for a home defined by changing sightlines, natural light, and architectural interest. The first-floor living space is a true Great Room—open, expansive, and designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Large windows, sliders on both sides of the room, and a gas fireplace create a bright, welcoming atmosphere that feels equal parts elevated and comfortable, with a seamless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for hosting or unwinding at home. Ascending to the second floor, abundant natural light continues through strategically placed windows and a glass door leading to a sun deck—perfect for a quite morning coffee or evening wind-down and designed so it can be enjoyed without disturbing the private bedroom spaces. The primary suite features distinctive window designs, multiple closets, and a spacious, well-appointed bathroom that feels more like a retreat than a standard bedroom. Additional second-floor features are best experienced in person, as this home’s design reveals itself through movement and perspective rather than description alone. Opportunities to own a truly one-of-a-kind home are rare. If this one is missed, the next custom contemporary offering from The ReDevelopment Company won’t be available for months.
