About this home
1897 HARTFORD PATH
BOND PAID! SPECTACULAR CUSTOM 3,100+ SQ. FT. NATCHEZ with an expansive pavered circle driveway, beautiful landscaping surrounding the entire home, and a large, PRIVATE yard with plenty of ROOM FOR A POOL! Located in the PREMIER VILLAGE OF BRIDGEPORT AT LAKE MIONA, this exceptional home offers an impressive combination of space, quality, and thoughtful customizations. From the inviting front porch to the beautiful LEADED GLASS front door and sidelite, you’ll immediately sense the quality and attention to detail throughout this remarkable home. Inside, TILE flooring flows through the foyer, kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room, and sunroom, while LOVELY HARDWOOD FLOORING graces the remainder of the home, with carpet in one guest bedroom. The spacious, open design features 10-FOOT CEILINGS, 8-FOOT DOORS, CROWN MOLDING, AND PLANTATION SHUTTERS, just a few of the many custom touches found throughout. The kitchen features beautiful WHITE cabinetry with glass inserts, STAINLESS appliances including a newer refrigerator and dishwasher, a convenient WALL OVEN and microwave, COOKTOP with vent hood, tile backsplash, pot drawers, under-cabinet lighting, and a movable island providing additional flexibility, while the breakfast bar features a beautiful tiled front that coordinates with the backsplash. TWO CUSTOM PANTRIES were added - one conveniently located near the kitchen and another in the expanded laundry room. The expansive dining and living area offers incredible flexibility. The current owners have utilized the dining room for their piano, yet this area easily accommodates a dining table should you prefer a traditional dining area. The generous living room provides plenty of space for family and friends and features a wall-mounted TV. But the true showstopper is just beyond the living room—the MASSIVE 865 SQ. FT. SUNROOM, destined to become your favorite gathering space! Climate controlled by a mini-split system, this spectacular room features a built-in counter and cabinetry with TWO BEVERAGE COOLERS, solar tubes that fill the room with natural light, and walls of sliding glass doors!

The primary bath offers a lovely tiled shower with bench and FRAMELESS GLASS door, dual sinks, and beveled-edge mirrors. The desirable split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy for guests on the opposite side of the home. BOTH GUEST BEDROOMS HAVE BEEN EXPANDED, with a large closet in the front guest room and built-ins in the second guest room. Both rooms also feature Murphy beds. A custom door was added to the second guest bedroom, providing convenient access to the main living area. The guest bath features a tub/shower with a frameless glass enclosure. The expanded laundry room offers abundant storage with an additional closet and cabinetry, plus a convenient sink and front-load washer and dryer.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
