About this home

Built in 2010 by Quality Features Inc. to a specification meaningfully above the base community standard, this is a 4,610-square-foot colonial on three above-grade levels with a full walk-out basement, three-car attached garage, and a build quality that is visible in every room: oak, marble, and porcelain floors throughout; custom millwork and moldings on every level; Wolf appliances and granite counters in the kitchen; three gas fireplaces, including one anchoring the Lynx outdoor kitchen on the rear terrace; a whole-house generator sized for a home this large; and a residential three-stop elevator serving all levels. The home is fully ADA-compliant and handicapped accessible, engineered into the original build from the foundation up, not retrofitted as an afterthought. The entry foyer establishes the scale immediately — two-story ceiling, custom staircase, hardwood flooring, millwork that carries through the entire main level. The kitchen is organized around Wolf cooking equipment, Sub-Zero-class refrigeration, granite counters, and custom cabinetry built to ceiling height. The rear of the house opens to the pond from the kitchen and main living areas — the sightline was designed deliberately, so the view is part of the daily experience of the home, not reserved for the terrace. Two gas fireplaces on the upper levels; the third anchors the outdoor Lynx kitchen, which turns the rear terrace into a four-season entertaining space with the pond as a backdrop. The lower level is a finished, walk-out floor in its own right. It houses an endless pool and resistance swim system, a dedicated spa room, and a full bathroom — with natural light, grade-level access to the rear yard, and direct sightlines to the pond. This is not a converted storage space. It is a fourth functional level with a specific purpose. Four bedrooms, seven full baths and one half bath. Every bedroom has a private bath. The primary suite is pond-facing on the upper floor. Ten total rooms. The three-stop elevator eliminates the vertical movement problem that makes most three-story homes harder to live in than they look on paper — groceries, luggage, laundry, and daily circulation across levels all become straightforward. The accessible design and flexible floor plan make this home genuinely adaptable across any configuration of use. Hamlet Estates is a gated community of approximately 85 homes with 24-hour guard-staffed entry, a 9,300-square-foot clubhouse, resort-style pool and spa, lighted tennis courts, full fitness center, basketball court, bocce, playground, lakeside putting green, and two community lakes with paddle boats. The pond this home sits on is one of them — a community amenity that 38 Hamlet Woods has exclusive proximity to. HOA common charges apply.
