912 Julian Ct

A cherished setting for this custom nearly all-brick 4 to 5-bedroom home on Julian Ct. This private Court boasts of custom estate-type custom properties on wooded & private lots-and 912 Julian Ct is no exception! Set on a 1/2 + lot, you will love the colorful natural flower gardens & enjoy plenty of play space. Overlooking the backyard is a custom IPE Brazilian hardwood deck & a comfortable gazebo. The stately circular drive leads you up to the front entry & into a welcoming two-story foyer with a jaw-dropping sweeping front staircase. 9' & 10' foot ceilings grace the main floor living areas complimented by multi-piece crown molding detail. The versatile living/music room has multiple custom windows, hardwood flooring, and a beautiful gas fireplace (one of 3 you see in the home). The estate-sized dining room leads directly into the kitchen through glass french pocket doors. The gourmet kitchen was updated with quartz counters & higher-end appliances in 2017 (Thermador, Kitchen Aid & Bosch), & many of the cabinets and cupboards have roll-outs drawers for easy storage. The center island is a great conversation area or extra workspace. Skylights & picture windows have been added at the sink area for wonderful garden views & great natural light. Access to the deck from both the breakfast room and the sunroom. Note the beautiful hardwood flooring throughout most of the main level. Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious laundry center and mudroom. There is access to the sideyard, direct access to the 3 car garage & a back staircase up to the 2nd floor from here. Note the center island folding table, closet, cabinets & utility sink in the laundry room. The stunning family room is open to the kitchen and breakfast area. It includes picture windows and skylights & offers a comfortable space to enjoy your favorite TV show or sporting event. A uniquely designed wall of craftsman-style built-ins & a 3-sided gas fireplace was executed by the renowned firm of Charles Vincent George (2010). They continued their creativity to incorporate a full wet bar, and peaceful sunroom (they also designed the deck as well in 2012). The thought behind the family room and sunroom design was to "bring the outside in" with the large picture windows. Mission accomplished! A private study is tucked away behind the family room with a full wall of built-ins for the perfect "work-from-home" environment. The second floor offers a library loft/reading nook above the front door. The wide second-floor hall provides excellent spacing between the 4 bedrooms & bonus room for a versatile workout space, media room, or sleep-over headquarters! The primary bedroom is highlighted by the lofted ceiling & gas fireplace. The luxury primary bath was totally remodeled in 2019. Twin sinks, jetted/bubbler tub, and roll-in shower to enjoy. There is a separate water closet, and a custom-fitted walk-in closet (the bath floor is heated (17 x 13). Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a hall bath with twin sinks & a separate area for a tub/shower with a skylight. There is also direct bath access from bedroom 2. Bedroom 4 has direct access to a "Jack & Jill" bath. The bath also opens up to a versatile multi-purpose "bonroom. The lower-level custom-finished basement adds over 1300 SF of versatile finished space to gather at a media area w/ built-in surround sound, a game table space with a wet bar, plenty of rec and play areas as well. Completed in 2012, the basement even offers a 1/2 bath & cedar-lined seasonal clothes closet + a craftsman-style built-in book and game cabinet. Plenty of unfinished storage as well. Other updates include: New roof and 3 new skylights in the kitchen (2020), a new 50 gallon high-efficiency water heater (2020), Carrier high-efficiency furnaces and central air systems with Carrier air exchange systems (2014). The home is also equipped with a central vac system. You are a few minutes from downtown, 203 schools, shopping, dining, the train, & expressways. So much to enjoy!
