Builder of the Week: Land your family in a Landon Home

Two-inch solid Carrera marble countertops in the gourmet kitchen add luxury to this home at 1760 Gorgie Cove in Collierville.

Realtor Mikki Duffey, with son Jere Duffey, owners of Landon Homes, loves the home’s kitchen. “This kitchen is to die for,” she said.

The home features an open and airy floor plan. The hearth room includes a gas-log fireplace and vaulted beam ceiling.

The wood treatment on the stairway is oak tread and leads to three bedrooms and a bonus/media room.

The butler’s pantry features a 14-foot ceiling and plenty of counter and cabinet space, perfect for entertaining.

There’s no reason to settle for second best when there is a home like the one Landon Homes has made move-in ready in Collierville’s well-known Wolf River Ranch development.

Landon Homes, winner of the Best Design award in the 2010 Vesta Home Show, has taken some of the most sought-after features, like hand-scraped hardwood flooring, marble countertops in the kitchen, 10-foot ceilings downstairs and a 14-foot ceiling in the hearth room, plus a butler’s pantry, and combined those with a luxury master suite and a gourmet kitchen and wrapped it all up in a nearly 4,200-square-foot home at 1760 Gorgie Cove that is perfect for your family while also being great for entertaining.

“Out of all 12 rooms in this spacious floor plan, I like the kitchen best,” said Mikki Duffey, the Keller Williams sales agent for Landon Homes. “It has so many features like two walk-in closets and a walk-in pantry, a breakfast area and a breakfast porch attached to bring the family together, plus a gas drop-in range, a built-in microwave and custom cabinets. This kitchen is to die for.”

Include the focal point hearth room with a gas-log fireplace and vaulted beam ceiling downstairs; then add the private dining room, a friend’s entrance and the 330-square-foot media room upstairs, and it’s clear that this is a home designed by well-known architects Looney, Ricks and Kiss that will please you, your family and your friends.

“We’ve built this wonderful home to be reminiscent of the relaxed, gracious Southern way of living,” Duffey explains. “We’ve given it large rooms and plenty of amenities that people don’t expect to find in a home in this price range. It’s open and airy and can serve as a family home with five bedrooms and four baths as well as being a place to welcome your friends for an evening on the covered courtyard terrace. I would say that it is a versatile and comfortable home plan that’s perfect for almost any occasion.”

A prime example of that versatility is the guest bedroom downstairs that has its own private full bath.

Don’t have guests that sleep over? Turn it into a quiet home office or it can serve as an in-law room.

Don’t need the third garage? Turn it into a wood-working shop, a hobby room or simply use it as an easy-access storage room. This floor plan is a design that can satisfy a family’s needs today as well as tomorrow.

And this home is situated in the Wolf River Ranch subdivision, which means it’s close to Johnson Park and its recreational amenities, Collierville schools and close to shopping in Collierville or nearby Germantown.

Priced at $499,900, this home just might be the home you and your family have been dreaming about but didn’t know existed. Why not see it for yourself?
