The Ardella is a beautifully designed single-story ranch-style home that combines traditional charm with modern functionality. From the moment you arrive, the home’s custom brick façade and raised detailing lend it a timeless, distinguished look that stands out in any neighborhood. Behind its classic exterior lies a flexible and thoughtfully planned interior, adaptable for a variety of lifestyles. Depending on your needs, The Ardella can serve as a spacious five-bedroom family home or a three-bedroom layout with a private mother-in-law suite tucked behind the main living area.
A gently arched covered porch creates an inviting entryway that opens into a bright, airy interior. The vaulted living room welcomes guests with its warm fireplace and seamless flow into the adjoining dining area. Nearby, the kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a raised eating bar, a convenient pass-through counter, and a large skylight that floods the space with natural light. With counters on three sides, a roomy pantry, and easy access to the laundry area, the kitchen is designed for both efficiency and everyday comfort. From the dining room’s double doors or through the utility room, homeowners can step out onto a covered back patio that’s perfect for outdoor meals, morning coffee, or quiet evenings in the open air.
In the bedroom wing, the vaulted owner’s suite offers a peaceful retreat. This private haven includes dual walk-in closets, a cozy sitting area, and an elegant ensuite bath with dual vanities. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath nearby, ideal for children or guests.
A covered walkway connects the main home to a detached guest cottage and a spacious three-car garage, adding another layer of flexibility. The guest cottage includes its own covered porch and opens into a comfortable great room with an eating nook and full kitchen. Two bedrooms and a shared bath complete this space, with the larger bedroom featuring its own walk-in closet. Whether used as an in-law suite, guest quarters, rental apartment, or home office, the cottage expands the possibilities for how this home can grow with its owners.
Blending elegance, practicality, and adaptability, The Ardella is the perfect choice for families seeking a multi-generational ranch home that offers both classic brick styling and modern comfort. Every detail of its design reflects a thoughtful balance of beauty and functionality, making it a home that truly fits the way people live today.
