Set on an exceptional .573-acre lot in Melshire Estates, this light-filled, move-in-ready 6-bedroom, 4.1-bath home combines an unusually flexible floor plan with extensive recent updates. The current owners have thoughtfully refreshed the home throughout, renovating the kitchen and every bathroom, repainting the interior, and replacing carpeting, creating a fresh, updated feel from the moment you enter. The main level features the renovated kitchen opening directly to the family room, along with formal living and dining rooms, a playroom, laundry, and four bedrooms with two baths. Two downstairs bedrooms are privately positioned in a separate wing that can function as a guest or multigenerational suite, with bedroom, bath, and adjoining living space. Upstairs, the primary suite features a renovated bath, oversized closet, and sitting room with built-ins. An additional bedroom with updated ensuite bath and a second office with skylights and built-in bookcases complete the second level. A large bonus room, accessed by a separate staircase, provides even more flexibility as a home gym, playroom, hobby space, or generous storage. The oversized backyard is a defining feature, with a pool, expansive grassy yard, basketball court, patio, built-in grill, and pergola-covered entertaining area. With abundant room to swim, play, entertain, or simply relax, the property offers a rare sense of space and privacy. Additional updates and features include a new cooktop and Sub-Zero refrigerator, renovated laundry room, three newer HVAC systems, Lutron lighting, smart-home technology, and two interior fireplaces. Conveniently located near Cooper Aerobics, Preston Forest Village, shopping, dining, and many of the area’s sought-after schools and amenities, this distinctive Melshire Estates home offers the rare combination of a .573-acre lot, extensive updates, flexible living spaces, and exceptional outdoor living.
