The main level is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring a welcoming living room, family room, separate dining room, and a spacious keeping room adjacent to the kitchen-ideal as a playroom, homework space, or gathering spot while meals are being prepared. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is the heart of the home, complete with a large center island, double ovens, an appliance cabinet, and abundant storage. A bedroom and full bath on the main level provide the perfect setup for guests or a home office. Upstairs, an open loft provides flexible space for a home office, play area, media room, or reading nook. Three secondary bedrooms share a well-appointed bath with a double vanity, while the spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat featuring a large walk-in closet with a custom closet system, double vanity, and oversized walk-in shower. Custom closet systems throughout the home maximize organization and storage. Floored attic adds large storage opportunity. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a screened porch that seamlessly extends the living space and provides the perfect setting for entertaining, morning coffee, or relaxing evenings. An open grilling deck overlooks the fenced backyard, offering plenty of room for play, pets, and outdoor gatherings.
