NEW! NEVER LIVED IN. Bloomfield Homes has built the Rockcress, a single-story plan with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a study, and a 2-car garage, expected complete and Ready in September 2026! Everything lives on one level here, set on a corner lot with a park view, in a community built for getting outside — a swimming pool, six parks, and trails throughout. The garage is a swing-style entry, turned so the doors face the side rather than straight at the street, and a bricked front porch sits beneath an 8' decorative front door at the entry. Just inside, the study sits behind glass French doors, private enough for calls or focused work while still part of the main floor. The family room centers on a stone fireplace. The Deluxe Kitchen is set up for someone who actually cooks: double ovens, a 5-burner gas cooktop, an apron farm sink, upgraded quartz counters, and an island with custom cabinets that keeps the cook facing the room. Upgraded wood floors run through the main areas, with upgraded carpet in the bedrooms. The primary suite carries a walk-in closet and a bath finished with a drop-in deck-mount tub set into its own surround next to a glass-enclosed shower, with upgraded tile on both the floor and walls. Natural gas heating and a tankless water heater keep the home efficient and the hot water running without a tank taking up space. A mud room off the garage catches shoes, bags, and sports gear before any of it reaches the rest of the house. Outdoor living runs front to back with a covered porch and a covered patio, giving you shade on both ends of the house. A full package of energy-saving components come standard, at no added cost, as they do in every home Bloomfield Homes builds. Come see the Rockcress at Bloomfield Homes in The Oaks!
