This paid Executive Home is sponsored by Hegg Realtors.

It’s not often a homeowner chooses to speak directly about a house for sale – but this one made an exception for this exceptional home.

Located at 7512 S. Ridgestone Drive, this five-bedroom, seven-bath home is a contemporary masterpiece of intentional design.

“I began designing this home when we started our family and created a book of dreams and ideas for it years before we actually began to build,” owner Shelly Kosiak said.

“Over the years, the design choices we made perfectly fit our lifestyle and we believe the lifestyles of many prospective homeowners.”

It began with the garage entry, the place everyone enters the home.

“Everyone wants a grand front entry, but this is a place that is all about being spacious, well-organized and accommodating,” Kosiak said. “There’s a desk station for each of our family members, which led to many evenings of homework help and family discussions, with all the clutter that normally accumulates on kitchen countertops and islands.”

A plethora of windows flood the home with natural light and offer breathtaking panoramic views.

“The design of the home is outstanding,” listing agent Lee Johnson said. “The open floor plan is perfect for both family life and entertaining.”

The sleek kitchen features a massive center island with an induction cooktop.

And the living space includes an integrated home entertainment system with wire loom tubing in the walls for future updates.

“Everything is so thoughtfully designed – you feel like you’re in an urban setting, but yet there’s a warmth and comfort here that makes it home,” Johnson said.

Another family must-have: laundry management. The home includes a washer-dryer in the master suite closet as well as a laundry area on the lower level near the three bedrooms.

“I never had to move laundry up or down or manage it in the living space of the house,” Kosiak said. “It’s a little thing, but it’s life-changing.”

The owner’s suite is an impressive retreat, including a soaking tub and massive walk-in closet.

Original artwork by Robert Bruce is featured on the sliding doors to the office and fitness studio.

“We wanted something unique to allow us to close off the mess in those two rooms, and I didn’t want traditional doors,” Kosiak said. “Many times, people don’t even realize they move or that there are rooms behind them.”

Each bedroom in the home also includes a dedicated bathroom. Four of the five are en-suite baths, and the fifth is adjacent.

“There were many holidays when we hosted more than 20 people, and the house never felt crowded – plus there always was an available bathroom,” Kosiak said.

“And this home is built for July 4 celebrations. We’ve been told we live on the highest point in Lincoln County. I don’t know if that’s true, but the views of fireworks from Brandon to Harrisburg, the country clubs and the fairgrounds is incredibly spectacular.”

Other upgrades include geothermal heating, smart-lock exterior and garage doors, and a heated garage.

“There are too many extras to detail, but you absolutely will realize these owners put in a huge level of attention to detail,” Johnson said.

Enjoy the outdoors from a massive deck or an inviting patio. And the spacious lawn is waiting for anything from your family’s next garden to a play space.

“The decision to sell was difficult, but I have come to realize I designed and built this house for a family that no longer has the use for it,” Kosiak said. “It’s big, it’s beautiful, but it’s empty, and it’s time for a new family to enjoy this functional design and create their own memories.”

This Executive Home is listed for $1,200,000. For information, contact Lee Johnson at 605-366-4206.
