Welcome to 3208 Shady Grove Road, a magnificent brick 1.5 story estate that perfectly balances southern charm with expansive privacy.

For effortless indoor-outdoor living, a screened porch opens off the family room. This space flows seamlessly into a formal dining room and a gourmet kitchen complete with stunning granite countertops. The main floor is also home to a spacious first-floor owner's suite, a private sanctuary featuring a luxurious bathroom with a large whirlpool tub, and a separate walk-in shower.
