22 Willow Bay Dr.

Willow Bay breathes new meaning into a fulfilled life. A community designed around freshwater ponds, mature trees and remarkable landscaping! A sense of accomplishment, serenity and privacy is felt while roads intertwine leading to this remarkable all brick estate proudly set in the back of the community on its own private pond with aerators adding to the already amazing ambiance! Upon entering the 2-story foyer an open concept overcomes guests with an art deco decor trending through the home beginning with an elegant living room engulfed in natural light from the expansive windows and a glass door that grants access to the side yard and pond. On the opposing side of the foyer is an intimate dining room with intricate carpentry work over door frames, phenomenal views of the front courtyard and access to a private office. The office is brilliantly designed with French door entry and custom built-in bookshelves. Adjacent to the dining room is a stunning eat-in kitchen with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the pond, modern style high-end cabinetry with soft close features, breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances consisting of a 4-burner cooktop, Smeg double oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator and a Bosch dishwasher as well as microwave. Open to the kitchen is a stunning family room complimented with a modern natural stone that surrounds the fireplace, custom built-in bookshelves and a glass door lending access to a multi-tier brick patio. The main floor also offers a mud room/generous laundry area, cheerful powder room and a back staircase. The 2nd floor is equally as impressive with 4 generous bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The master suite showcases an alluring sitting room with French door access to a private balcony casting an incredible aerial view of the yard and pond. Adjacent to the sitting room are 2 exceptional walk-in closets with custom organizers. Through the walk-in closet is access to a separate bonus room with a back staircase to the laundry room that currently serves as a gym or even a potential extension to the already terrific size walk-in closet. The master bathroom is refined with cherry double vanities, Jacuzzi tub and separate walk-in shower. The remaining 3 bedrooms share a full hallway bathroom finished with a double vanity and shower/tub combination. Partial unfinished lower level! Oversized 3-car garage currently accommodating housing for 4 vehicles. Absolutely incredible yard with unobstructed views, plenty of space to entertain, 2 tier brick patio overlooking the pond with multiple aerators.
