About 721 Shelley Rd

Welcome to 721 Shelley Road, a home that offers exceptional upgrades beyond typical new construction in the area. Enjoy site-finished hardwood floors throughout the first level, a spacious first-floor primary suite, generously sized bedrooms, a bonus room, and two full baths upstairs. The owner has thoughtfully enhanced the sunroom with triple-glazed windows, a fully insulated floor, auxiliary heating and air, a high-end ceiling fan, and skylights—though this space is not included in the square footage. Custom shades, shutters, and awnings surround the sunroom, adding both function and style. The open kitchen features stunning bluestone granite countertops and a brand-new five-burner Wolf induction electric stove—though the option for gas is still available behind the stove. A bright breakfast area seamlessly connects to a recently finished keeping room, complete with a cozy gas fireplace. Step outside to an oversized deck with durable Azak decking, overlooking a spacious, level yard and patio. The backyard shed is vented, heated, and air-conditioned, plus it includes a cold water tap for added convenience. Upstairs, the attic offers expanded walk-in storage, with the potential for conversion into an additional bedroom or bath with the addition of a dormer. The beautifully sodded and irrigated yard is ready for outdoor enjoyment and even has the perfect setup for a future pool. With so many thoughtful upgrades and features, a full list will be provided—but trust us, this home is a must-see!
