Lake, US
Welcome to 1296 Kajer Lane, a stunning 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath brick home in the highly desirable Arbor Ridge subdivision. Perfectly positioned on a half-acre lot with serene pond views and beautifully landscaped, mature gardens, this residence offers a total of 5300 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, including the wonderful finished basement, that combines timeless elegance with modern comfort, just steps from Everett School. A grand, light-filled two-story foyer with a sweeping staircase and beautiful hardwood floors sets the tone as you enter. The formal great room impresses with its cathedral ceiling, dramatic fireplace, and seamless flow into a stylish wet bar complete with a sink, beverage fridge, and generous wine storage, an entertainer's dream. Beyond the bar, the inviting family room showcases spectacular backyard and pond views, another gorgeous fireplace, and sliding doors that open to the screened porch, creating a perfect space for relaxation and gatherings. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen has been beautifully updated, most recently with a brand-new 42 inch Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf cooktop and downdraft, all added in 2025. Enjoy casual dining in the sunlit breakfast nook with direct access to the spacious deck, or start your day at the built-in coffee bar. A secondary staircase provides convenient access to the upper level. The formal dining room offers an elegant setting for special occasions and holiday celebrations, while the spacious laundry and mudroom area features a new washer and dryer, abundant cabinetry, and even a dog wash station for added convenience. A versatile fifth bedroom on the main floor, currently used as an office, serves equally well as a guest suite or in-law arrangement thanks to its private full bath and the possibility to access through a separate entryway. Additional features on the main level include ample closet space, elegant powder room, and direct access to the three-car garage. Upstairs, double doors open to an inviting primary suite with soaring cathedral ceilings, a large walk-in closet, and a private balcony overlooking the tranquil pond - an ideal spot for morning coffee or quiet reflection. The luxurious primary bath offers a double whirlpool soaking tub, a two-person shower with rainfall heads and wall-mounted jets, dual vanities, and a clever hidden cabinet for storing essentials. Three additional spacious bedrooms each feature walk-in closets and updated bathrooms; one boasts an en-suite bath, while the other two share a charming "Romeo and Juliet" bathroom, with dual WC areas for added privacy. The open staircase from the foyer leads to the expansive 2,300-square-foot English basement, filled with natural light from large above-grade windows. This versatile level includes a bar and games area, a cozy family room with fireplace, and flexible space perfect for a gym, hobby room, or playroom. There is also a substantial additional space, also with above grade windows, offering exceptional storage or the opportunity to customize further to suit your needs. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a spacious deck and screened porch overlooking the beautifully maintained yard and peaceful pond. The lower patio area provides additional space for entertaining or quiet evenings surrounded by nature. The roof was fully replaced in 2023. Combining sophistication, comfort, and functionality in one of the area's most desirable neighborhoods, 1296 Kajer Lane offers a rare opportunity to enjoy refined living in a truly special setting. Come and experience this exceptional home for yourself - you'll fall in love the moment you arrive
