130 N Buckingham Drive doesn't just meet the bar - It totally resets it! Breathtaking curb appeal meets timeless design in this 4,558 sq ft all-brick, south-facing, two-story estate - prominently set on an oversized cul-de-sac lot (over half an acre!) surrounded by mature landscaping in Sugar Grove's highly sought-after Prestbury subdivision. A 3-car side-load garage completes the picture on this scale-and-substance stunner, crafted to feel as warm and livable as it is impressive. Step through double doors with sidelights and a soaring arched window into the Grand Foyer - and yes, it earns the capital letters. Two-story, sun-filled, and dressed in 24" Italian porcelain tile, a chandelier, custom ceiling accents, and a curved staircase that makes an entrance all its own. The sunken family room delivers major cozy-luxe vibes: a one-of-a-kind custom stone fireplace with marble hearth and gas logs, oak-beamed ceilings, recessed lighting, and Palladian windows that flood the space with light. Slide open the glass door to the private back patio and the indoor-outdoor flow is effortless. The eat-in kitchen is built for gathering - raised oak and seeded-glass cabinetry, all stainless appliances with cooktop and downdraft, and opulent white bullnose Corian counters that extend over the island for easy stool seating. A second patio access point makes this the true heart of the home. Retreat to the primary suite, where a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with custom herringbone inset (echoing the exterior brickwork!) meets a limestone mantel, vaulted ceilings, two walk-in closets, and a beautifully laid-out bath with skylight. Upstairs, a galleried landing overlooks the main living space and connects to a private secondary suite, while two more bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath. More to love: zoned HVAC, two water heaters, a full unfinished basement roughed in for a bath and bar, crown moldings, and pocket doors throughout. Prestbury living means resort-style amenities right outside your door - an outdoor pool with a 12' deep end and lifeguard-monitored kiddie pool, tennis and pickleball courts, a lake, parks, a clubhouse, and scenic walking paths. Meticulously maintained and clearly cherished - this is a home where quality and care show in every detail.
