Quiet cul-de-sac, walk-out basement, and a backyard you won't want to leave. At the end of a cul-de-sac in Holly Glen, 420 Covenant Rock Lane has 3,544 heated square feet on three levels, with four bedrooms, three full baths, and a half bath. Built in 2012. Inside. The kitchen opens to the living room, where a gas fireplace makes cooler evenings easy. The dining room hosts holiday dinners or works as a quiet office. Upstairs are all four bedrooms and the laundry room, plus a primary suite with a private bath and two walk-in closets. Lower level. The finished daylight basement adds about 928 square feet of walk-out space with its own full bath.

The two-story custom playhouse stays with the home, and there's an attached two-car garage. Holly Glen. Community pool, tennis courts, playground, and park, with HOA dues of $209 a quarter.
