from the homeowner | Located in Clarkson Valley, 16753 Kehrs Mill Estates Drive radiates timeless elegance. The stately house, however, also exudes a welcoming charm, from the wood-burning fireplace to the open kitchen to the beautiful pool. The current owners have called the property home for 27 years, and now, they’re ready to move on and let another family experience this special property.
What did you enjoy about the neighborhood?
Kehrs Mill Estates is multigenerational, so your neighbors are a wonderful mix of young families, retirees and everyone in between. It’s a very engaged community, and we’ve felt really comfortable here. It’s wonderful to walk around and just look at how beautiful the neighborhood is.
What are some standout features of the home?
The exterior is very impressive from the street. It’s a traditional red brick home, and the lot is more than an acre and professionally landscaped. It’s very stately, and the interior is traditional but modernized to feel open and welcoming.
Tell me about the outdoor spaces.
There is a beautiful lap pool. There also are two water features that create wonderful ambience. We loved to sit in the back, listen to the water, watch the birds and just relax. The lot backs up to a beautiful common green space, but the landscaping ensures you still have privacy. There’s a redbud tree that we planted when our son was in kindergarten. He brought it home from school on Arbor Day, and 27 years later, it’s one of the yard’s showpieces. In spring, it’s just gorgeous.
Do you have a favorite room?
The family room. It has a wood-burning fireplace with a brick surround, and I loved relaxing around it with friends and families. It’s a large space, but it’s still inviting. There are doors out to the pool, and it overlooks the green space. You can just be super comfortable and enjoy beautiful views.
How is the home for entertaining?
Entertaining and cooking are a big part of our lives. We designed the kitchen to be open concept and large to accommodate guests. They can come in to talk while you’re cooking and move easily into the family room or out to the deck. The house is a marvelous place to entertain.
What would you like the next homeowners to know about the property?
We’ve loved this home. It’s a wonderful place to raise a family. You’re close to amazing schools. In fact, you can hear the cheering from Marquette High School during football games. It’s wonderful to feel that connection to the community. I hope the next family finds as much joy as we have.
