Recently remodeled and redesigned, this two-story just needs a personal touch. From the roof to the patio, windows and doors to high efficiency appliances and electronics, this brick home has luxurious finishes throughout.

Located within a pocket cul-de-sac along the Stillwater River banks, the brick two-story at 5500 Beejay Court has about 4,892 square feet of living space including the finished walk-out basement. Listed for $750,000 by Home Experts Realty, the secluded 1.2-acre property has a tree-lined and wood privacy-fenced back yard and includes a new storage barn with covered porch.

A stamped concrete patio includes a fire pit. The concrete driveway offers an extra parking pad while curving up to the three-car garage with storage nook.

Exterior updates include a dimensional roof, six-inch gutters and downspouts, leaded-glass entry door with matching sidelines, garage doors with electric openers and replacement windows throughout.

Inside, the renovations and design updates continue under volume ceilings. Bathrooms, the kitchen, the laundry room and the walk-out basement were upgraded with some updates starting at the bare studs.

Young landscaping accents the walkway to the covered formal entry which opens into the two-story foyer. Accent lights highlight the plant shelf above the doorway and metal spindles compliment the railing accenting the upstairs catwalk hallway. Luxury wood-plank flooring fills the foyer and continues throughout the main social areas including the formal dining room which is open to the foyer. The dining room has a tray ceiling and updated lighting. Across the foyer, French doors open into a private study or sitting room. An updated half bathroom with tongue-and-groove wall treatment has a bureau vanity with single sink and quartz countertop.

An open stairwell leads to the lower level and the open staircase wraps up from the two-story great room to the second floor. The staircase has painted wooden steps and landings with wood-plank flooring in a box design with an epoxy coating.

A stone gas fireplace ascends to the full length of the wall and has a raised hearth and dentil wood mantel. Next to the fireplace is a wall of windows that provides views of the large patio, fire pit and park-like back yard. The great room flows into the breakfast room which has double glass doors that open out to the patio. Off the breakfast room is a laundry room with folding counter, wash sink, hanging cabinetry and ceramic-tile backsplash.

A large island with extended soap quartz countertop allows for bar seating up to six plus additional storage options with drawers and cabinets. The spacious U-shaped gourmet kitchen features a six-burner gas range with griddle and a pot filler faucet underneath the exhaust hood. A window is above the double sink and two pantry cabinets have pull-out shelves. A beverage station has wood-beam shelves above and a beverage cooler below.

The light cabinetry has some wavy-glass panel doors and there are plenty of soapstone quartz countertops for preparation. Additional appliances include a wall microwave and a dishwasher. Access to the three-car garage is off the kitchen.

Tucked off the foyer near the great room is the first-floor primary bedroom suite. The bedroom has a volume ceiling and a walk-in closet filled with built-in organizers.

The semi-open stairwell leads down into the finished basement. The main room is spacious enough to be a recreation room as there is there is a water source for a possible wet bar. A door opens out to sunken concrete steps that lead up to the backyard patio.

A hallway from the recreation room leads to a half bathroom, a separate media room with a platform for elevated seating and extra electrical supplies for media. The hallway wraps around a bonus room with a connecting bonus room.
