NEW! NEVER LIVED IN. Bloomfield Homes has built the Seaberry II, a two-story plan with 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, a study, and a 2-car garage, expected complete and Ready in October 2026! The home sits on an interior lot with a park view, in a community built for getting outside — a swimming pool, six parks, and trails throughout. The upgraded brick and stone front elevation carries a cedar wood garage door and an 8' tall front door, a finished, substantial look from the curb. Just inside, the study sits behind glass French doors, private enough for calls or focused work while still part of the main floor. Super tall ceilings lift the main living space, and the family room centers on a gas fireplace, open to the room and finished with decorative tile and logs. The Deluxe Kitchen carries a 4-burner cooktop, a single-basin stainless steel sink, and an island with custom cabinets that keeps the cook facing the room. RevWood flooring runs through the main areas of the first floor, with upgraded carpet in the bedrooms. Upstairs, upgraded horizontal iron balusters line the railing overlooking the family room below, a cleaner, more current look than standard vertical spindles. The baths are finished with patterned tile walls, a step past a plain surround. Outdoor living runs front to back with a covered porch and a covered patio, giving you shade on both ends of the house. Landscaping and 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 Seaberry II at the Bloomfield Homes model in The Oaks.

NEW! NEVER LIVED IN. Bloomfield Homes has built the Carolina, a single-story plan with 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a 2-car garage, expected complete and Ready in October 2026! Everything lives on one level here, set on an oversized interior lot that backs to a greenbelt — open space behind you instead of another rooftop. A fully bricked front porch sits beneath an 8' front door, and the entry opens into the plan's rotunda, a real architectural moment the second you step inside. A formal dining room sits off the entry for the sit-down meals and holidays. From there the plan opens up around a large family room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, with an island kitchen built to stay connected to the room. That kitchen runs all-electric and carries quartz counters, custom cabinets dressed with upgraded hardware, under-cabinet lighting along the run, a pull-out trash cabinet, and a finished raised panel on the back of the island so it reads as built-in rather than boxed. The primary suite sits apart from the secondary bedrooms and includes a walk-in closet with room to organize, plus a bath with a garden tub for soaking and a separate shower. Window coverings are already hung throughout. Outdoor living runs front to back with a fully bricked covered porch and an extended covered patio, giving you more room under cover than the standard footprint. A lighting system keeps the elevation lit after dark, and gutters plus a full package of energy-saving components come standard, at no added cost, the same as every home Bloomfield Homes builds. Come see the Carolina at Bloomfield Homes in North Grove!

NEW! NEVER LIVED IN. Bloomfield Homes has built the Cypress, a single-story plan with 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, a study, and a 3-car garage, expected complete and Ready in October 2026! Everything lives on one level here, set on an oversized interior lot that backs to a greenbelt — open space behind you instead of another rooftop, and a wider-than-standard homesite to go with it. The three-car garage gives you the extra bay for a truck, a workshop, or the storage a two-car runs out of room for, and an 8' front door anchors the entry. Just off the entry, the study gives you a separate room to work from home, do homework, or set up the desk that otherwise ends up in a corner of the living room. From there the plan opens up around a large family room with a charming tile-to-ceiling fireplace, while an island kitchen built to stay connected to the room so whoever's cooking isn't shut off behind a wall. That kitchen runs all-electric and carries quartz counters, custom cabinets dressed with upgraded hardware, a pull-out trash cabinet, and a finished raised panel on the back of the island so it reads as built-in rather than boxed. The primary suite sits apart from the secondary bedrooms and includes a walk-in closet with room to actually organize, plus a bath with an enlarged separate shower expanded for a spa-like experience. Architectural windows carry natural light through the main living areas. Outdoor living runs front to back with a covered porch out front and a covered patio out back, giving you shade on both ends of the day. Gutters and a long list of energy-saving components come standard, at no added cost, the same as every home Bloomfield Homes builds. Come see the Cypress at Bloomfield Homes in North Grove!
