Welcome to 100 Laurel Meadow Lane - a four bedroom, three and a half bath Southern Colonial home built by Ted Brown, situated on a scenic ten acre lot. As you tour through this one of a kind home, we would like to draw your attention to a few of the many exceptional quality features found which are often not present in other homes on the market today.
The siding and wide windows trim is mitered and fit with the same care and attention to detail as the interior trim.
Notice the detail on the solid Douglas fir porch posts that arrived on site as 10' bark less, but rough, 8" x 8" posts. The posts were then milled and shaped on site.
The valance/skirt Boards are cedar, not #2 knotty pine or some other substandard wood often times used with exterior applications.
The handrails and spindles are also cedar, one of the best exterior woods available. Notice how well the railings fit to the posts, needing no putty or caulk.
The porch ceiling is a reproduction vinyl product. It replicates the beaded ceilings popular in older homes. The ceiling is easy to clean and never needs painted like the typical beaded board ceiling. The beautiful floorboards are finger-jointed Douglas fir. There is a herringbone pattern utilized in lapping the boards at the corner of the wrap-around porch.
There are five different widths and sizes of the maple boards utilized in the hardwood floors. You can see an example in this picture.
The marble backsplash frames the granite countertops and maple hardwood cabinets.
The cook top has a grill insert for winter indoor grilling!
The lower cabinets have exceptional storage with hide-a-way roll out cabinets.
The windows are top quality Peachtree, tilt-in for easy cleaning and double hung for added attractiveness.
The quality continues throughout the home. Enjoy the solid construction and amazing details in each room.
Look closely at all the miters and cuts on the moldings around the baseboards and windows. All are tight, precision cut joints not filled with caulk or spackle, a sure sign of exceptional attention to quality trim installation. Don't forget to look in those hidden molding areas such as the insides of the closet doors!
Exterior doors-the exterior doors are top quality Pella and Peachtree doors. The Peachtree doors have triple locking system for added security as well as the house alarm system.
Lighting-all the fixtures in this home provide abundant and attractive lighting for all ambiances needed.
Bedrooms-note the size and layout of all the bedrooms, they are all exceptionally roomy with ample wall space for beds, desks, dressers, etc.
Framing-while it is difficult to see the framing or basic structure of this home, a sure sign of excellent craftsmanship even with framing, is to look at the straightness and flatness of all the walls and ceilings in this home. An example of this quality framing can be seen in the bonus room above the 3-car garage.
Other details which make this home unique are the brick lattice work columns, concrete sidewalks flanked with brick and even a custom cupola on the garage that was hand-crafted on site.
