House Review: 4405 Fable Hill Parkway North in Hugo
/Just hit the market this week and listed by Sarah Skalicky for $775,000, this super home is located in the highly prestigious Fable Hill neighborhood. It’s one of the prime lots that were built in the original development. The neighborhood has a great feel, very high end with rolling hills and large lots.
The house is very nice. It sits up on the crown of the hill and faces the Fable Hill tower. The back yard is good but not overly large for the size of the lot. It somewhat backs up to the entrance road but there is some wooded area between the yard and the road so I don't think its much of a factor.
Inside is solid and well built as Pratt homes are. High ceilings in the living room with the gas fireplace. The kitchen is nice but not overly so. Maybe at this price point you would expect a few more bells and whistles and that perhaps shows the age of the house. The main floor space feels just a little small but that could be the fault of the oversized furniture which doesn't help the feel. Also on the staging side, the owner is a big hunter and the multiple deer heads and gun room could be toned down.
On the floor plan side, the master suite is on the main level and there are two bedrooms upstairs with a play area. It works but its different than many of the newer construction homes with the master on the upper floor with the bedrooms. It probably fits a family with older kids more than young ones.
The basement is a walk out and has a nice warm feel with the fireplace and bar. There is also a great storage room that can be accessed or driven into from the back yard. The floor is epoxy. Very nice for the toys.
Overall, its a great house. Could use a little staging help and a bit of decluttering but otherwise a super house in the best neighborhood in Hugo. The only other drawback is the price, which is probably close to the right price but still a lot of money compared to some of the new construction. However this is one of the prime lots in the neighborhood and that certainly has value.
