SUCCESS STORY

Sold August 25, 2026 for $1,025,000

List price: $1,049,000
Sale price: $1,025,000
98% of asking price

This was not an easy house to sell.

The property had been used as a rental for years. It was dated, dirty and had significant deferred maintenance.

The premium 0.63-acre golf course lot should have been one of the home's strongest features, but the landscaping had been neglected for years and had largely gone to seed.

In its condition, we believe the home could easily have traded closer to $900,000 in today's market as we had other offers at that level.

Instead, Dolby Haas brought in the ideal buyer who paid $1,025,000.

Even better, the seller was not asked to pay a cooperating broker commission. The buyer negotiated a concession instead, allowing the seller to avoid the cost of a second real estate commission.

The result:

$1,025,000 sale price
98% of asking price
No cooperating broker commission paid by the seller
Sold in 68 days

For a dated former rental with substantial condition and landscaping issues, this was an exceptional result for the seller.

Dolby Haas Real Estate
We don't just list homes. We find a way to get them sold.

In a market where buyers have substantial negotiating leverage, protecting all but 2% of the original asking price is a strong result.

That is the difference between simply listing a property and actively managing the sale.

REMARKS:

Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after Pine Creek neighborhood, this exceptional ranch-style home offers a rare combination of privacy, views, and an unparalleled golf course setting. Situated on over half an acre along the golf course with no homes directly behind, the property is framed by mature landscaping and enjoys a peaceful backdrop that enhances both everyday living and entertaining.

Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan centers around an expansive open living area featuring a dramatic two-sided gas fireplace with stone surround, built-in speaker system, and seamless access to the outdoor living spaces. The chef’s kitchen offers granite countertops, double ovens, and abundant space for gathering with family and friends.

The main-level primary suite creates a true retreat, complete with its own two-sided fireplace, jetted soaking tub, oversized double shower, walk-in closet, and serene views of the beautifully landscaped surroundings.

The finished basement significantly expands the home's living and entertaining possibilities with soaring ceilings, another fireplace, custom wet bar (with storage that can be used as wine storage!), flexible office/lounge space. 3 spacious secondary bedrooms feature en-suite bath access and walk-in closets creating an ideal layout for guests, multigenerational living, or extended stays.

Outdoor living is equally impressive with a stamped concrete patio, elevated deck, outdoor fire feature, wired exterior speakers, and generous yard space surrounded by mature trees and landscaping. Whether enjoying a quiet morning overlooking the golf course or hosting a gathering with friends, the setting offers exceptional privacy and beauty.

Additional highlights include a 3-car garage with mudroom entry, concrete tile roof, dual furnaces, newer water heaters, central A/C, whole-house humidifier, radon mitigation system, and security system prewire.
