Some houses stand out because of what's inside. Others have something that's much harder to find, and at 365 Iveson Road, it starts with the lot.Tucked into a cul-de-sac in Old Rice Retreat at Cane Bay Plantation, this 4 bedroom home has a backyard that's anything but typical. It's HUGE, fully fenced, dotted with fruit trees, and instead of looking directly into another row of homes, the property backs toward the Cane Bay High School athletic fields, creating a much more open backdrop.And then there's the covered patio. At approximately 16'x26', this isn't the little concrete pad you find behind so many neighborhood homes. It's a true outdoor living space with room for a dining table, comfortable seating, a grill and then some. Host a crowd, watch Saturday football outside, work fromthe porch on a pretty day, or let everyone spill between the patio and that enormous backyard. It's the kind of space that can completely change how you live in a house.
Inside, the open main living area gives you an easy flow between the kitchen, dining and family spaces. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, tile backsplash, a pantry, and plenty of cabinet and counter space. A flexible room downstairs gives you options for a home office, playroom, guest space or whatever your life happens to need.
Upstairs, new carpet gives the bedroom level a fresh start. A spacious loft at the top of the stairs creates another incredibly useful living area--think kids' hangout, gaming room, homework space, home office or second TV room. The primary suite features a tray ceiling, walk-in closet and private bath with dual vanities and a large walk-in shower, while the upstairs laundry keeps the everyday stuff conveniently close to the bedrooms.
There's another reason this home deserves a look, particularly if you're also considering new construction in Cane Bay. Cane Bay is still growing, but Old Rice Retreat is already established. Here, the streets and neighboring homes are built, the landscaping has had time to grow in, and you know what surrounds you. You get to enjoy the benefits of living in a growing master-planned community without necessarily living right in the middle of the construction activity that comes along with that growth.
And Old Rice Retreat's location closer to the front of Cane Bay makes everyday life pretty easy, too. Cane Bay schools, the YMCA, shopping, restaurants and the community's extensive trail system are all nearby, while Old Rice Retreat offers its own pool, playground and pavilion.
New construction certainly has its appeal, but there's something to be said for buying the pieces that are already in place and making the rest your own over time. Paint colors and finishes can evolve with you. An oversized cul-de-sac lot, established fruit trees, a massive covered outdoor living space, an open backyard backdrop and a location in an established section near the front of Cane Bay are considerably harder to recreate.
Sometimes it's the things you can't easily change that end up mattering most and you will find those here!
