Property details
About 501 Benning Dr
This newly built David Meyer custom home was just too big for the sellers, so their loss is your gain. The main house is a 3+/3 with a semi-completed apartment above the garage with a bathroom and a multitude of options. Porcelain tile is throughout the house with natural Quartsite stone countertops that can withstand heat, scratches, and stains. The open floorplan is amazing with two bedrooms on the south side of the house and the master suite on the other. The master suite includes the bedroom, bathroom, walk-in closet, and a full room that could be a nursery, gym, workshop, office, hobby room, man cave, etc. It has an exterior door that makes the list of possibilities even longer. The walk-in pantry is amazing, and the wire shelving will remain. All the cabinets throughout the house are self-closing. The Kenmore Elite gas stove has 5 burners, with a massive 3-speed hood with 2 adjustable sets of lights, a regular oven, a 9 side oven, and a pot filler. The primary kitchen sink is a stainless-steel farm sink with a spray & stream faucet, and the island sink has a bottom spray plus a retractable stream faucet. The island bar holds 4 - 5 seats comfortably or 6 with a tighter fit. The kitchen island also has a convenient wine rack on the north end. The main house has its own HVAC system, and the loft has its own HVAC system, and both have tankless water heaters. The home is wired for a generator with dead receptacles for installation behind the kitchen refrigerator, in the rear pantry wall, in bedroom number 3, and in the laundry room where they have a refrigerator that will not remain in the house. The washer and dryer also will not remain. There is a large bundle of Coax cable in the office that will remain. The exterior is a paradise with lots of shade, pavers by Delta Pavers, breezeway with motion sensor lights, front and rear floodlights, and hot/cold water stubbed outside, if needed. Too many features to list them all, but suffice to say, it is a well-planned, spectacular home.
