Property Description
Some homes impress you. Others invite you in. 3505 Rugby Road does both. Set back on 1.14 beautifully manicured acres in sought-after Hope Valley, this newly renovated transitional ranch feels wonderfully private and completely connected to its surroundings. A sweeping front lawn creates a gracious arrival, while out back, mature trees wrap the home in a quiet woodland setting that feels worlds away. This is a house designed around the way you want to live. Coffee on the screened porch. Friends gathered around the kitchen island. Doors open to the patio on a beautiful evening. A fire going as the night settles in. Inside, the renovation feels considered rather than simply new. Every surface has been touched, yet the home retains a sense of history and ease—as though its best details have always been here. The kitchen is at its heart, with natural walnut cabinetry, soapstone countertops, Thermador appliances, and an oversized island made for gathering. Flanked by two generous living spaces, each with its own fireplace, it creates an effortless flow from one room to the next. The sunken living room may become the room you never want to leave, with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that dissolve the boundary between inside and out. New Marvin windows throughout frame the trees like artwork and bring natural light into every corner. The primary suite offers its own quiet retreat. A deep soaking tub sits beneath a generous window overlooking the backyard, with a private deck just beyond—a small luxury that may quickly become a favorite ritual. Primarily one-level living makes everyday life easy, while a lower-level bonus room and spacious laundry offer added flexibility. Just beyond, a covered two-car carport is wired for EV charging. Tucked behind the carport, a generous detached workshop feels like a destination of its own. Fresh but soulful. Refined but relaxed. 3505 Rugby Road is the kind of home that feels finished yet inviting and effortless - a place made for gathering, retreating, and living beautifully.
