Description

Welcome to 1225 Shenkel Rd located in Owen J Roberts school district. This custom-renovated rancher is nestled on a tranquil 2-acre wooded lot, where timeless design meets modern comfort. This thoughtfully updated home offers one-level living with elevated features throughout. As you step into the tiled foyer, the spacious open-concept floor plan is perfect for everyday living.  You are greeted by rich, real hardwood flooring that runs throughout the home. The formal dining area nearby is spacious and is great entertaining space for gatherings and a gas fireplace that anchors the space with warmth and style. Natural light floods through energy-efficient windows, all replaced within the last 2 to 6 years, ensuring comfort and efficiency in every season.   The kitchen has been fully updated with rich wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. You also have a custom desk, kitchen island, and coffee bar near by for additional storage. The seamless flow into your family room with a beautiful view and easy access to the outdoor deck area, built with high end synthetic decking, help keeping your feet cool during those hot summer days. This amazing space is complete with an outdoor kitchen area with a sink and additional storage—perfect for entertaining against a backdrop of mature trees and natural privacy. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring a full bathroom with dual vanities and a stand-up shower. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility, including a “blue room” with built-in closet shelving and a cozy office or guest room just steps down from the main level. A renovated guest bathroom, updated over the last seven years, adds both function and refined charm.   Storage and systems have been carefully considered: a walk-up attic with plywood flooring and an updated HVAC adds convenience and potential; a coat closet near the back door, a broom closet off the bathroom, and an unfinished basement with a full bathroom rough-in offer both storage and future expansion options. Additional highlights include 200 AMP electric service, an electric hot water heater, and a well pressure tank installed in 2019. The insulated garage features partial drywall, a hose bib, and a high-capacity EV charger for modern convenience.   The exterior is just as thoughtfully appointed. In addition to the  many updated amenities, the property includes a well-maintained above-ground pool and comes with a brand New Roof and new gutters!   From its quiet setting and premium materials to its smart layout and future-ready systems, this home offers an exceptional opportunity to enjoy refined ranch living in a truly custom home.
