I’ve frequently sung the praises of the exquisitely planned, relatively new addition of River Hills and apparently, I’m not alone in my admiration of the latest development in the Edwards Ranch story.
Two listings in the fashionable enclave are status pending after between six to 11 days on MLS. That means you have between a few hours to five days to make your move if this house at 5149 Peach Willow Lane is your dream house. The listing has already had nearly 1,000 views.
At 4,950 square feet, this four-bedroom, four-bath Mediterranean-style villa is one of the larger residences in River Hills. Walk in and discover what is so right about these handsome new builds in a highly sought-after location. Completely lacking pretension, there is no cold hotel lobby feel with front-to-back sight lines and the expected bombastic staircase. Instead, the foyer has a simple arched wooden door and is crowned by a lovely vault springing from four points.
The house is traditional in its details if not modern in its layout with the open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen trio. Details include beamed ceilings, arched openings, premium wooden windows, and wood floors. I’m not a fan of the faux rustic scraped floors, but am loathe to admit that the floors here are one of the best manifestations of the genre I’ve encountered — not surprising because the best local builders have made River Hills their turf.
Naturally, appliances are top of the line with a massive 60-inch, professional-grade, dual-fuel range. It’s not just that this house has everything, it’s that this house has a premium version of everything including a first-class wine room.
The spacious owner’s retreat has a luxurious en-suite bath with mixed marble flooring and surfaces, a long soaker tub, a large glassed-in shower stall, and a large walk-in closet. The suite is on the ground floor as well as an additional ground floor bedroom. Also at ground level is a large study with the second of two fireplaces.
Upstairs are the remaining two bedrooms, an additional living area large gym, and a terrace.
Completing the many extras of this luxury property is an outdoor kitchen and under-roof dining area with an elegant plunge pool beyond. The back garden is mostly hardscape, making maintenance a cinch. The two-car garage has epoxy floors. There is a $208 monthly HOA fee. You have an opportunity to see this special property in person, at an open house at 2 p.m. Saturday, August 12, but if you are seriously interested, I would book a showing ASAP.
