About 616 Southwest Crestview Drive
First time ever on the market! This is not a house where the owners simply chose from a builder's catalog. They were commissioning / selecting superior craftmanship. La Pomme Blanche is a distinctive Colonial-inspired home built in 1972 with craftsmanship and architectural details reminiscent of historic Duke of Gloucester Street in Williamsburg, Virginia. From its solid wood doors and custom millwork to its handcrafted exterior lighting, this is a home filled with character rarely found in modern construction. Much of the home's original woodwork was crafted by Slaughter Lumber Company of Phoebus, Virginia, including the built-in bookcases, family and living room mantels, and mouldings throughout. Solid wood paneled interior, closet, and exterior doors complement the home's traditional design, while Baldwin Brass hardware adds another timeless detail. Pegged hardwood flooring extends throughout the home, complemented by ceramic tile in all bathrooms and distinctive La Pomme Blanche brickwork flooring in the kitchen. Period-style light fixtures throughout the home convey with the property, further preserving its authentic Colonial-inspired character.

The kitchen features recently replaced appliances, including the dishwasher and cooktop, along with an updated refrigerator and sink fixtures.

The decorative fireplace in the formal living room provides an attractive period focal point, while select rooms retain wallpaper that complements the home's traditional style. The exterior has also been recently painted and enhanced with new shutters, including upstairs shutters accented with traditional iron shutter dogs. Three lampposts and updated street-facing shutters further enhance the home's classic curb appeal. Outdoor spaces include a rear deck, brick patio beneath the deck, privacy fencing designed with pets in mind, and a separate fenced area near the basement with a doghouse.
