Strategically positioned on a picturesque, level 1-acre lot surrounded by trees and farmland, 7975 Billingsley Road offers a rare blend of pastoral living and commuter convenience, with Route 210 just five minutes away. Here, homes are thoughtfully spaced, with horse pastures to the east and the stately 18th-century Acquinsicke farmhouse, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, to the west. From nearly every window, the views are more countryside than neighboring homes. This exceptional custom-built Colonial offers over 6,000 SQ FT of living space with wrap-around porch, curving custom brick walkway, and professionally landscaped beds. Meanwhile, in back, multiple oversized windows on two floors and a huge deck and screened porch take full year-round advantage of the home’s southern exposure. The fully-fenced front and back yards offer both safe space for recreation and places for peaceful retreat. The home also features an extra-sized, finished, side-load, two-car garage. Inside, a dramatic two-story foyer with hardwood flooring opens to spacious formal living and dining rooms, and a main-level office or optional bedroom with adjacent full bath. Elegant details include chair rail in foyer, dining room and office, pocket doors, and 9-foot ceilings. The updated eat-in kitchen showcases granite countertops and backsplash, 42-inch cabinetry with crown molding, soft-close drawers and paneling, hardwood floors, recessed lighting, stainless steel deep sink, breakfast bar, walk-in pantry, upgraded lighting, and a large sliding window overlooking the backyard. The adjoining breakfast nook features charming stained-glass accents and flows into the inviting family room with recessed lighting, ceiling fan, more custom windows, back staircase, and access to the impressive screened porch that provides relaxed dining and entertaining beneath the canopy of a mature maple tree, surrounded by the sounds of birds and the deck water fountain. The maintenance-free composite deck includes deck lighting, with floodlights all around the home. Upstairs, the luxurious owner's suite offers plantation shutters, a walk-in closet with organizer, and a beautifully renovated spa-inspired bath with dual vanity, jetted soaking tub, designer tile shower with two spray heads, and private water closet. Upstairs also are three additional generously sized bedrooms (each with a walk-in closet), plus a huge bonus flex room, which could be a second family/fifth bedroom or playroom. The upper level conveniently has two hall baths. The finished basement is designed for entertaining, highlighted by a dedicated theater room that comfortably seats at least 12, with full-wall screen, soundproofing, recliners, tiered viewing areas, and 16-foot countertop and cabinets with mini refrigerator and mini freezer. The basement also includes a half bath and a large flex room ideal for an office, gym, hobby room, or potential sixth bedroom. Additional highlights of this home include two propane stoves, backyard storage shed, dual-zone HVAC with two heat pumps and oil backup, architectural shingle roof, water filtration system, battery-backup sump pump, vinyl siding, front-load laundry, and garage’s custom flooring, workbench, cabinetry, and extra storage. A truly special property offering privacy, character, beautiful views, and convenient access to major commuter routes, shopping, dining, and everyday amenities.
