***Please submit all offers by Tuesday at 12:00 PM (Noon) *** Truly exceptional Brookhaven-built brick home, perfectly situated on one of the largest lots in the highly desirable Buckingham subdivision. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captivated by the beautifully finished living space, thoughtfully designed to meet every need. A grand foyer with a sweeping curved staircase welcomes you and sets the tone for the open and inviting floor plan. French doors lead into the living room (or second office), featuring a stunning stone fireplace — ideal for relaxing or working privately from home. The spacious dining room flows into an entertainer’s dream kitchen with an oversized center island, granite countertops, gas stove, and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen connects seamlessly to the family room and offers direct access to the backyard, making indoor-outdoor entertaining a breeze. An additional first-floor office (or possible guest bedroom), a convenient laundry/mudroom with backyard access, and a powder room complete the first floor. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite features a custom walk-in closet, and a beautifully updated en suite bath with vaulted ceilings, dual sinks and a spacious walk-in shower. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and a full bath with dual sinks complete the second level, offering ample space for family and guests. And there’s even more! The finished lower level provides outstanding bonus space with a second family room, a rec room ideal for playing pool, a large gym area, and a storage room with exterior access to the backyard. Step outside and feel like you’re at a private resort — a beautiful paver patio with a retractable awning, a fenced-in in-ground pool and an expansive backyard with additional green space perfect for a volleyball net, yard games or even a future playset. There’s room to relax, entertain, and enjoy the outdoors year-round. All this in an unbeatable location — just minutes from LVHN, top-rated schools, parks, shopping, restaurants, and major highways. This home truly has it all — space, quality, upgrades, and an incredible backyard retreat — just in time for summer! Move right in and start living the lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
