About 515 Poplar Drive

Welcome home to this beautifully updated mid-century gem that perfectly blends vintage character with modern convenience. As you step onto the main level, you are greeted by gorgeous hardwood floors that flow seamlessly through the expansive living room, which is anchored by elegant French doors, and into the formal dining room. The kitchen shines with bright cabinetry and features a reverse osmosis water filtration system and a whole-house water softener. The primary suite serves as a true retreat, boasting an oversized walk-in closet and a private ensuite bathroom. Two additional well-appointed bedrooms round out the main floor. The lower level of the home features a true walk-out basement, offering a blank canvas for your lifestyle needs, whether you envision a high-end home theater, a dedicated fitness studio, or a quiet executive office. What truly sets this property apart is the lack of HOA restrictions and the incredible outdoor infrastructure designed for hobbyists and entrepreneurs alike. The massive out-building features a two-car garage currently optimized as a professional-grade shop, complete with a built-in air compressor, parts washer, and powder coat oven. Adjacent to the shop is a single-bay garage equipped with a dedicated paint bay, lighting, and exhaust fan. For those with a green thumb, the southern end of the building offers a sun-drenched garden room with multiple windows. Above the workspace, you will find a fully equipped Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) featuring its own kitchen, living area, bedroom, and bathroom, making it ideal for multi-generational living, a private guest suite, or an income producing retreat. The exterior amenities continue with a gravel parking pad featuring full sewer and electric hookups for an RV or camper. The sprawling yard is a private oasis, dotted with fruit-bearing plants and multiple storage sheds for equipment. It also features a separate fenced area perfect for pets to roam safely. Complete with a large covered parking area at the front, this unique estate offers unparalleled freedom and functionality.
