Bright New 3BR Home with Screened Patio in Crescent Mills
This Ashton Woods-built home pairs contemporary finishes with practical family design across 2,326 square feet. What stops you first is the screened-in patio that expands everyday living outdoors on a level 0.14-acre lot—perfect for coffee, pets, or al fresco dinners without the bother of bugs. Inside, purposeful planning is evident: two separate living areas give room for a quiet office, media zone, or a kids’ play area while the formal dining space sits adjacent to the well-appointed kitchen.
The kitchen centers on a large island and a walk-in pantry, offering real prep space for busy households. The open plan keeps conversation moving between the kitchen, breakfast area, and one of the living rooms, while a second living area provides separation when you need it. Thoughtful touches include second-floor laundry placement and generous storage options that make everyday routines simpler.
Upstairs the primary suite provides a roomy footprint with a walk-in closet, dual vanities, and a soaking tub—designed for comfort and convenience. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath and are sized to accommodate guests, homework stations, or hobby space. The home’s contemporary systems—natural gas heating, central A/C, composition shingle roof—and a two-car attached garage complete the package for low-maintenance suburban living.
