ELEGANCE & FUNCTION  No matter what has piqued your interest about this Bristow beauty, there is so much to love about this home. Located in New Bristow Village community, this Lynton model by Centex is loaded with very sensible use of space with no shortage of style. Step inside the grand two story foyer bathed in natural light and you have a preview of the impressive space this home offers. In the very front, overlooking the covered porch, a study allows for a dedicated home office at the farthest point from the hustle and bustle of the kitchen and family room. Stepping past the staircase to the upper level, the formal living and dining rooms are to the left and straight ahead, windows covered in the timeless classic of plantation shutters. | WRAP AROUND KITCHEN Expansive runs of granite counters offer plenty of work space and even bar seating as the kitchen hugs the family room. Along with the counters comes a multitude of cherry cabinetry. Storage is not a problem here. Behind the kitchen is a large pantry, access to the garage and the laundry room complete with built-in cabinets. Breakfast nook sits at the northeast end of the kitchen and, like the family room, living and dining rooms, has plantation shutters.  | BEDROOM LEVEL Upstairs an elegant primary suite with tray ceiling easily accommodates large bedroom sets and still feels open. One over-sized walk-in closet has abundant storage for clothing and personal items. The expansive primary bathroom offers a tranquil space for the jetted tub, double sinks, private water closet and a stall shower. Plenty of space here for two adults to get ready for their day. Secondary bedrooms are all attached to a full bathroom. Second bedroom has its very own en-suite bathroom. Third and fourth bedrooms have a “buddy” bathroom with private entrances from each room. Double sinks can be closed off from the tub/shower and toilet area with door for privacy.  | TIME FOR FUN   Basement is the level for pure leisure. A wet bar sits in the center of the recreation room with beverage cooler and refrigerator. Pool table will convey to the next owner, as will the mounted TVs & speakers here and the family room. A fifth bedroom is currently in use as workout room. And for house guests to have their own space, there is even a fourth full bathroom here.  |   AMAZING OUTDOOR SPACES  From the main level, exit to a composite deck the full width of the home from either the living room or breakfast nook and fall in love with the view. Gentle sloping yard joins open park-like common area and wooded views. And the deck allows for entertaining traffic with stairs to the patio below, which is also accessible from the walk out recreation room exit in basement. And don’t forget about the Charleston inspired front porch with southern exposure where function meets charm.  |  COMMUNITY & SURROUNDINGS  New Bristow Village has loads of character in curb appeal and plenty to entertain in the way of amenities. Clubhouse sits at the center of the community, in front of a lake central to the neighborhood. Strolls the walking trails that take you around the lake and community. For more vigorous activity there is an outdoor pool, tennis/pickle ball court, basketball courts and playgrounds. If you prefer the peace and tranquility of a walk, the Bristoe Station Battlefield Heritage Park adjoins the neighborhood.  | FURNISHINGS & TIMING  The owners are making an overseas move and have expressed that the home can come furnished. Assuming you have your own furnishings, know that any furniture in the home can convey if you desire. Sellers need to be in the home to the end of July. Delayed settlement or rent back will be necessary.
