A first-floor primary suite. A keeping room with fireplace. A finished walk-out lower level built for multigenerational living. This six-bedroom golf course community home checks the boxes that matter most -- and then some!

The home's main level opens to a dramatic two-story living room filled with light, flowing into a keeping room with fireplace off the kitchen -- the heart of daily life. The eat-in kitchen area offers expansive counter space, as workstation and walk in pantry!

The expansive first-floor primary suite with includes a sitting area, dual walk-in closets, and a spacious bath. Across the hall french doors open to a dedicated office or flex space.

Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and two full baths provide space that flexes with your needs. Below, the finished walk-out lower level adds approximately 1,727 square feet of bonus space -- complete with two bedrooms, a full bath, kitchenette, dining area, and a dedicated gym/flex room. Note that this level is finished but not heated or cooled, making it ideal for guest stays, extended family, or active use year-round with the right setup.

Multiple outdoor spaces give you room to relax at the end of the day or entertain with friends. Choose from your welcoming front porch, rear screened porch and deck or lower patio. With thoughtful bonuses such as central vac and a dedicated laundry room this home does not disappoint!

The Preserve at Jordan Lake offers residents more than a prestigious address. The community amenities -- pool, racquet courts, and the Davis Love III-designed championship golf course -- make everyday life feel like a retreat.

The seller is offering a $5,000 credit at closing with an acceptable offer.
