1714 Park Drive

Achieving the perfect blend of location, craftsmanship, and design is exceedingly rare in real estate, making properties like 1714 Park Drive a once-in-a-lifetime find.

The fully fenced back garden offers a tranquil escape with an in-deck hot tub, focal fountain and floral accents designed to deliver year-round beauty. A detached office and workshop offer flexible options for hobbies and working from home, while the home's main-level office with full bathroom allows for easy aging in place. On the airy upper floor find an expansive primary suite complete with a cozy reading nook, gas fireplace and delightfully spacious walk-in closet along with three additional bedrooms. Find yourself transported by this home's perfect combination of classic charm and contemporary finish.
