Modern architecture, private acreage, and resort amenities rarely converge in the Weddington school zone, and 1064 Greylyn Drive delivers all three. Set on 1.58 acres on a quiet cul-de-sac, this contemporary estate offers more than 5,500 square feet under roof, including 4,125 sq ft of heated living area across the main residence and accessory building, 4 bedrooms, 5 full baths, multiple bonus and flex rooms, a resort-style pool, and 4-car garage capacity across two garages. Zoned for top-ranked Antioch Elementary, Weddington Middle, and Weddington High, with quick access to I-485. Since 2022, the property has been transformed through a comprehensive owner investment of exceptional scale and quality, reimagining the home and grounds with a full designer kitchen, the pool and outdoor living environment, the accessory building, and whole-property systems. The result is a 2015-built home that lives like new construction. An oversized black steel pivot door announces the home's design intent from the first step inside, opening to a main level where the brand-new kitchen showcases custom walnut cabinetry, a dramatic waterfall quartz island with matching quartz backsplash, and a new suite of stainless ZLINE appliances. Rich Brazilian walnut hardwoods flow throughout the entire main floor, anchored by a sculptural spiral staircase refinished in matching Brazilian walnut, a warm counterpoint to the home's crisp modern lines. The residence pairs clean contemporary architecture with serious infrastructure: rooftop solar, Tesla charging, security cameras, dual-zone heating and cooling, and a private-entrance suite ideal for in-laws or guests. Three levels of living include a rooftop terrace, loft, and generous flex spaces that adapt to home offices, media, gym, or hobby rooms. An oversized, fully gated circular drive delivers abundant guest parking and four garage bays, with the attached two-car garage joined by two more in the accessory building, and dual LiftMaster smart gates providing secure, WiFi-controlled access. The backyard lives like a private resort. A 20x40 heated pool with 8x8 spa features sheer-descent waterfalls, benches, and a tanning ledge, surrounded by marble hardscape decking, low-maintenance turf, landscape lighting, and a smart louvered pergola, fully fenced with rear irrigation. The showpiece accessory building adds 444 sq ft of finished living with a kitchenette, full bath, laundry, and conditioned loft, alongside an 880 sq ft fully conditioned oversized double garage featuring radiant in-slab heated floors with polyaspartic coating, wiring for a car lift and EV charging, a plumbed pressure washer, hot and cold exterior faucets, hardwired fiber internet, and a deck overlooking the pond. Guest quarters, studio, or the collector's dream garage. Private acreage, modern design, and turnkey systems rarely found together in the Weddington school corridor.

Live in your own storybook village, where tree-lined streets wind past homes with inviting front porches, Victorian-inspired details, and the kind of architectural character rarely found in newer neighborhoods. Chestnut Oaks was designed to feel different—and from the moment you arrive, it does. That same sense of craftsmanship continues inside this home, where warm heart pine floors, wainscoting, decorative trim, and extensive stacked crown molding create spaces with depth, warmth, and personality. A soaring two-story foyer sets the tone, leading into a dramatic great room where vaulted ceilings and a stacked-stone fireplace create a natural centerpiece for both quiet evenings and lively gatherings. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, with solid surface countertops, a tile backsplash, gas range, and an easy connection to the surrounding living spaces and outdoor deck. The main-level primary suite feels like a true retreat, offering a generous walk-in closet and spacious bath with dual vanities, separate tub and shower, and private water closet. Upstairs, the home continues to surprise. Two separate loft areas offer the freedom to create spaces that fit the way you live—perhaps a reading nook overlooking the living spaces below, a home office, media room, playroom, or creative studio. One loft also offers the potential to be enclosed, creating an additional bedroom, bonus room, or more private workspace as your needs change. Thoughtful details appear in unexpected places, from the barn door at the laundry area to the layers of millwork that give the home its distinctive character. Step outside to enjoy dinner on the deck, a weekend gathering with friends, or a quiet evening relaxing in the hot tub under the stars. In a world of cookie cutter neighborhoods, Chestnut Oaks stands apart. Here, architecture has personality, homes have character, and coming home feels a little like stepping into a story of your own.
