Cherokee Park Sanctuary on Maple Rd
Oversized Ranch 3-Car Garage Nearly 1 Acre
Unicorns do exist—and this is yours. Nestled against the serene bird sanctuary of famed Olmsted-designed Cherokee Park, this rare gem offers breathtaking views through walls of oversized divided-light windows that bring nature into every corner.
Step through leaded glass double doors into a dramatic marble-tiled foyer, setting the tone for elegant living. Hardwood floors and a gas fireplace with marble surround anchor the formal living room, where an expansive window frames the park like a living painting. The formal dining room features classic wainscoting, floor-to-ceiling window, and a columned view into the open-concept heart of the home.
The chef’s kitchen is the showpiece – boasting a 6-burner gas stove, wine fridge, bar sink, tall cabinetry, dishwasher and sleek black granite countertops surrounded by bar-top seating. Enjoy the cozy gas fireplace with built-in bookcases in the adjoining family room. An adjacent morning room with vaulted ceilings, skylights, and wraparound windows makes for perfect dining or lounging or step onto your brand-new two-tiered 900+ sq. ft. deck to soak in the solitude.
A separate wing houses the bedrooms, including a sprawling primary suite with vaulted ceiling, dual walk-in closets with built-ins, and a luxe bathroom featuring skylight, garden tub, double vanity, oversized shower, and private water closet. A second bedroom utilizes a generous hall bath with dressing area, two more closets, double vanity, and a tiled shower/tub combo.
The walk-out lower level offers versatility with Saltillo tile floors, a wood-burning fireplace, French doors, and large flex space. A sizable bedroom and full bath round out the finished area, with ample storage throughout.
