OFFER DEADLINE: Monday 3/16 at noon 7229 Wapello Drive presents a rare opportunity in Derwood Station South, offering the community’s largest floorplan with 2,544 square feet above grade plus a fully finished 1,140 square foot basement, for a total of approximately 3,684 finished square feet. The home sits on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood at approximately .40 acres, featuring a brick front elevation and a fully hardscaped driveway. Enter into the foyer and you’re greeted with a custom craftsman style staircase- the original owner has made several beautiful updates over the years. To the left is a generously sized main level bedroom/office convenient to the renovated powder room, and the entire right side of the main level is a large living room feeding into an equally expansive dining room, both with beautiful hardwood floors, suitable for large family gatherings. The hallway extends into the renovated eat-in kitchen, offering raised-panel cabinetry, corian countertops, stainless steel appliances, and gas cooking. The breakfast area opens directly into a large family room (the seller opted for a wider floorplan when built) with an updated gas fireplace surrounded by custom built-ins, with skylights for ample natural light. French doors lead to a generously sized three season sunroom with vaulted ceilings. The rear yard delivers exceptional outdoor living with extensive hardscape, including a grilling patio, dining patio, Trex deck built around a sunken hot tub, and a large pond with water feature and bridge leading to a gazebo. Upstairs you’ll find a large primary suite with a renovated bathroom including a frameless shower with a seat, and a large walk-in closet with built-ins. Three additional well-sized bedrooms share a large hall bath with dual vanities, and a spacious linen closet completes this level. Stairs from the kitchen lead to the lower level complete with an expansive recreation room, including a wet bar/kitchenette perfect for entertaining. A large bonus room sits adjacent to a full bath with a renovated vanity and a combination tub/shower. The large utility room also provides ample storage space. Every update made to this home was with quality in mind. Simonton replacement windows are installed throughout, along with a brand new GAF architectural shingle roof with new skylights installed February 2026. Additional features include a backup generator, AO Smith gas hot water heater (2019), and a high-efficiency Daikin HVAC system with a humidifier and air cleaner, professionally serviced twice yearly (2021). The property also includes a nine-zone sprinkler system on a sub-meter and a storage shed that was grandfathered prior to the HOA. This private, resort-style setting, combined with the home’s size, upgrades, and lot, makes 7229 Wapello Drive a standout offering in a prime Derwood location.
