14530 Sandstone Drive

Square footage is easy to find. A floor plan that actually fits your life is not. Built by Arbor Homes as a two story craftsman on a pond lot in Bridgewater, 14530 Sandstone Drive is zoned to Covington Elementary, Woodside Middle, and Homestead High in Southwest Allen County Schools, and every part of it was built around how a family actually spends a day, not how a listing sheet describes one. Start on the main level, where the primary suite lives on its own wing, no stairs required: a tray ceiling, dual vanities, a garden tub, a ceramic walk-in shower, and a walk-in closet sized for real life. Just off the foyer, French doors open into a flexible room, an office some days, a den on others, a dining room when the holiday calls for it. The kitchen anchors the center of the home with granite countertops, white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry, open to a great room where a gas log fireplace does its work quietly and large windows frame the backyard and the pond beyond it. Main level laundry finishes the floor. Upstairs, four more bedrooms each keep their own walk-in closet, split between two full baths, so privacy here doesn't mean isolation. Everyone gets a door of their own without losing the feeling of one house. Downstairs, the finished basement adds two large living areas and a full bath, plus additional finished rooms ready for whatever comes next: a theater, a gym, a playroom, a studio, a second office. A large unfinished section is still open for whatever nobody has decided on yet. The current owners kept investing rather than leaving it for a buyer to inherit: fresh interior paint, new upper level carpet, professionally cleaned flooring, a refreshed deck, and a full landscaping overhaul with new trees, shrubs, and mulch throughout. Outside, the pond does more than sit there. It opens the backyard, clears the sightline, and turns the deck into somewhere people actually linger in the evening. A covered front porch welcomes you in, and an attached three car garage covers vehicles, gear, and everything in between. HOA dues run $500 a year. Five bedrooms, four full baths and a half bath, 4,469 total finished square feet across 3,120 above grade and 1,349 finished below, all on a 0.32 acre pond lot. If Bridgewater and Southwest Allen County Schools have been on your list, 14530 Sandstone Drive is worth seeing in person.
