YOUZA! Don't miss out on this one-time opportunity to buy a hidden gem! This penthouse Chester condo is located within the acclaimed 55+ Four Seasons retirement community on Kent Island adjacent to the Chester River. It was intended by its owners to be their forever home which is why they invested more than $60K on Homeowner Upgrades on top of their purchase of close to $50K worth of Builder-offered Upgrades. Capitalize on the owners' unexpected change in life plan and come see these customized enhancements-all of which are fully detailed in the owner's binder of documented improvements. This home does not just show like a model; rather, its minimalist design elements and smartly integrated home automation features far exceed. From the unit's 4th-floor balcony on the back of a 4-story Garden style building nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac, enjoy a spectacular, unobstructed view looking directly eastward for miles across the quiet coastal inlet the 200 yd wide Macum Creek forms as it flows into the Chester River. The condo is directly perpendicular to and within a stone's throw of the creek whose undisturbed natural habitat is home to an intriguing array of flora and fauna. Have fun spying on the wildlife from the unit's lofty perch or by venturing less than 100 yards to one of the creekbank trailheads. Brace yourself for brilliant sunrises that flood the interior with crisp light until late morning almost all year round as well as the westerly incandescence of 3-season sunsets (whose warm light stretches lazily across Macum Creek at dusk to illuminate the far wooded bank). The home's custom-painted interior is no less compelling. 3 tray ceilings add elegant largeness to the Great Room, Dining Area, and the Primary Suite. Stunning Minka Aire ceiling fans with built-in low-profile lights hang in the Great rm and Den while other decorative fixtures and wall sconces designed by Restoration Hardware artisans add hue, interest & balance to the Foyer, Dining Area, Kitchen Island, and Guest Room. All original ceiling flush-mounts have been replaced with upgraded, and strategically located, recessed RAB downlights. The Primary and Guest Baths are updated with front-lit Paris Mirrors with dimmable LED illumination. All the home's interior lighting is controlled by programmable smart keypads and switches-allowing lights to react to motion and to be set to work singly or in a group at different intensities to match your mood. Music wafts at your pleasure through multiple SONOS in ceiling speakers located in the Great Room, Dining Area, & Den. Elegant California Closet customized built-in storage is in the Primary Suite's 2 closets, plus in the walk-in closet/office hub - all adding to the unit's luxe aesthetic. Other remodeled improvements intensifying the unit's graceful decor are: floor-to-ceiling Shaker-inspired wood paneling along the Great Room's elongated accent wall that is complimented by a hand-crafted wainscoting leitmotif in the Foyer and alcove leading to the guest bedrm; a redesigned Gourmet Island with paneling matching the kitchen cabinetry; and a farmhouse-style sliding barn door adding unique personality to the unit's other architectural elements. Window treatments are Hunter Doughlas sheer Silhouette motorized blinds in the Primary Suite and traditional styled vinyl shutters in the Guest Bedrm. LVP throughout, except laundry and guest bath which consists of Daltile decorative porcelain. The Garage is outfitted with a California Closets custom-designed wall cabinet, and the concrete floor is treated with a glossy epoxy coating. Don't let this golden opportunity slip through your hands-you cannot beat the price of this tranquil cul-de-sac unit especially when compared to the expensive prices of the newly constructed 4th-floor Chester Models closest to the hubbub of resident activity. The newer condos do not compare in terms of offering either the same unblemished panoramic view or luxury add-ons.
