Live Grandly at Snowden Overlook! Welcome to a world of refined 55+ living where elegance, comfort, and convenience come together beautifully. Nestled within this highly desired gated community, this gracious villa invites you to embrace a maintenance-free lifestyle—without giving up the space and sophistication you deserve. Tucked toward the back of the community for added privacy, this home offers a private garage, two-car driveway, and generous guest parking. With peaceful wooded views across the street, every arrival feels like a retreat. Step inside and be greeted by sunlit, soaring spaces—a dramatic two-story foyer sets the tone for the open, airy design. A formal dining room awaits memorable dinners, while the kitchen delights with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, double wall ovens, and a central island. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the two-story great room, where a gas fireplace adds warmth and charm.

Upstairs, a versatile loft provides space for relaxing, reading, or working - ideal for guests or hobbies alongside two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath. Downstairs, the beautifully finished lower level offers endless possibilities: a home theater, craft studio, exercise area, or quiet retreat. A full bath adds flexibility for extended stays. Recent enhancements elevate peace of mind and everyday ease including: New HVAC system (2021); New water heater (2024); Brand-new refrigerator and dishwasher; Fresh paint throughout; New carpeting on main and upper levels; Rich hardwood flooring in the foyer, dining room, kitchen, and living areas.
