Property Description

Some homes give you a backyard. This one gives you a private woodland retreat tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac and set well back from the road. Surrounded by mature trees, seasonal creek views, and nearly 1,000 square feet of wraparound decking, this .89-acre property offers the kind of privacy that's increasingly hard to find—without the burden of an HOA. Offering 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 3,417 square feet, this multi-level home was built for the way people actually live. Large gatherings, multigenerational households, work-from-home flexibility, overnight guests—there's room for all of it. The main level brings people together with multiple living and gathering spaces, original hardwood floors, and a double-sided fireplace that anchors the heart of the home. The kitchen combines function and style with granite countertops, a KitchenAid stainless double oven, gas cooktop, exterior-vented hood, under-cabinet lighting, and a large walk-in pantry. A breakfast nook, dining area, and direct access to the outdoor living spaces make entertaining feel effortless. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private balcony overlooking the wooded setting, creating a quiet place to start or end the day. Additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or dedicated office space. New windows have been installed throughout the bedroom and bathroom areas. The finished walkout basement adds a level of versatility rarely found at this price point. Previously configured as an apartment-style living area, it includes a large recreation room, office, full bathroom, kitchenette, private exterior access, and laundry hookups. Whether you need guest accommodations, space for extended family, a home business setup, or simply room to spread out, this level gives you options. Outside, the property truly shines. Multiple deck levels, cable railings, screened porch, mature landscaping, and wooded views create an environment that feels more like a mountain retreat than a typical suburban backyard. The seasonal creek and natural backdrop provide privacy and a setting that changes beautifully throughout the year. Additional highlights include natural gas heat, gas cooking, fiber internet availability, copper plumbing throughout much of the home, extensive storage, three washer/dryer hookup locations, 2 car garage, covered carport area, and flexible living spaces throughout. If you've been searching for a home that can comfortably handle everyday life while giving you the space to entertain, relax, and adapt as your needs change, 6101 Dresden Lane is worth experiencing in person.
