5024 Knotty Alder Drive Skip the wait and the expense of building! This stunning 1.5-year-old home is better than new, offering upgrades already completed and move-in-ready convenience from day one. From the inviting covered front porch and beautiful landscaping to the bright, open floor plan with 9-foot ceilings, every detail has been thoughtfully designed. The spacious family room features a gas fireplace with a marble surround, while the kitchen impresses with 42-inch cabinetry, Silestone countertops, breakfast bar, oversized pantry, GE appliances that stay, and convenient main-floor laundry with washer and dryer that stays. As you make your way upstairs, a custom-added picture window fills the staircase with beautiful natural light, creating an airy, welcoming transition to the second level. Upstairs offers four spacious bedrooms plus a versatile loft perfect for a home office, playroom, or second living area. The private primary suite includes a luxurious bath with double vanities and two walk-in closets. One of the standout features is the oversized backyard-one of the larger lots in the subdivision-complete with an extended patio, custom composite-and-wood steps, black aluminum fencing with three gates, a dedicated garden area, and peaceful views where deer are frequent visitors. The unfinished lower level includes an egress window, rough-in plumbing, sump pump, and radon mitigation system, providing endless possibilities for future living space. A roof that's only six months old adds even more value and peace of mind. Conveniently located near Seckman Road, highways, shopping, restaurants, and everyday conveniences-and just minutes from the well-known Mastodon State Historic Site, with its scenic creeks recently recognized by St. Louis Magazine among the best near St. Louis.
