712 Mellie Keener Road Mellie Keener Road winds through a lovely valley in a community named Persimmon. Persimmon is a place filled with mountain vistas, rushing streams and wildlife. Deer and turkey are common visitors, and red-tailed hawks and the occasional bald eagle can be spotted overhead. It is here in this place of uncommon peace and beauty that you will find an impeccable, highly customized, architect designed home. With its high-end amenities and Craftsman finishes such as walls of windows providing panoramic views, custom Craftsman-style cabinetry, subway tile and solid oak flooring throughout (laundry and two full baths are tile), it "wows." As you walk into the 18' foyer and beyond to the living room you immediately recognize the high level of detail and quality present in this home. Around the corner is the kitchen with ample cabinets with deep drawers for storage. Quartz countertops and high-end appliances (see disclaimer) complete this well-designed space. Flanking the kitchen is the dining room and more windows. Just beyond that is the expansive master suite with enough space for sleeping, a corner office and a sitting area. And windows! And views! The master bath finds privacy behind a sliding barn door. Inside, a large vanity with double sinks set in a granite countertop, a deep Kohler cast-iron soaking tub and an oversized walk-in tile shower provide a spa-like experience. This personal retreat is supported by a custom walk-in closet. This is a very complete home with ample storage, a laundry room, an oversized two-car garage and a basement large enough for a workshop or a workout space. Outside, the house is surrounded by beautiful custom stonework and multiple outside living spaces starting with a large screened porch shaded by tall trees, a 60' X 10' open deck for sunbathing and watching the birds fly and a back patio layered with flint stonework and surrounded by French blue hydrangeas and the sound of a mountain stream below. The home's special amenities feature architectural shingles, Pella windows, custom motorized shades to shield the living room from the afternoon sun, over 1100 square feet of porches and decks and so much more...easily finish the insulated garage or basement for additional finished square footage!
