11730 HAWKS NEST TRAIL

Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this charming country-style cottage (with a 3 yr old roof) sits on an expansive 9.9-acre wooded lot offering privacy, serenity, and room to roam. A beautifully landscaped front garden welcomes you to a warm, inviting home featuring vaulted ceilings, wood plank tile flooring in living areas and wet spaces, and a spacious open-concept layout that seamlessly connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen. The living room showcases a cozy fireplace and a wall of sliding glass doors that open to a generous covered back porch, perfect for enjoying tranquil views of the surrounding woods. The kitchen is a cook's delight with granite countertops, a breakfast bar, breakfast nook, and pantry. A split floor plan offers added privacy, with the primary suite boasting a trey ceiling with crown molding and uplighting, dual walk-in closets, and a luxurious ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub, separate shower, and water closet. Two additional bedrooms and a versatile den with elegant double glass doors provide flexible space for guests or a home office. The laundry room is outfitted with a sink and ample cabinetry, while the side-entry two-car garage is complemented by both a standard and circular driveway. Outside, you'll find a workshop equipped with 220-volt power, two roll-up doors, and a 30-watt RV converter charger, as well as raised garden beds and a greenhouse frame ready for your touch. The entire property is fenced with two gated entrances, including an electric gate with key fob access.
