This exceptional builder's personal residence sits on nearly six private acres in Catawba, just minutes from the Appalachian Trail and Virginia's famous Triple Crown. Convenient to Salem, Roanoke, and Blacksburg, the home has been freshly painted throughout, highlighting the quality construction and thoughtful details that define this spacious residence.With 5,588 square feet of finished space, five bedrooms, and four full baths plus a half bath, the home was designed with one-level living in mind yet still offers plenty of room for a large family or guests. Nine-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, large crown molding, custom built-ins, bookshelves, and double-pane windows throughout create a refined, comfortable feel, while abundant storage keeps everyday living practical. The updated kitchen is a true highlight, featuring Bosch appliances, custom cabinets, and quartz counters. The large primary suite includes tray ceilings and a huge walk-in closet. A large covered front porch frames beautiful mountain views with sunrise vistas, while the back porch provides serene sunset views. Practical upgrades include whole house surge protection, an Eaton 17kW emergency backup generator, large-capacity radon evacuation system, and replacement of all components in both HVAC systems in Jan 2023 and Oct 2023, respectively. A three-car garage and the absence of an HOA complete the picture of quality mountain living at its finest.
