The chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, appointed with quartz countertops, dual islands, a walk-in pantry, dedicated office nook and an inviting breakfast area that flows effortlessly into the family room. A custom mudroom with built-in storage and a sun-drenched three-season room with vaulted ceilings complete the main level. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms and three full baths include a luxurious primary suite featuring a walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath with vaulted ceilings, soaking tub, dual vanity and multi-jet shower. The convenient second floor laundry room completes the second floor space. The third level, currently configured as a fifth bedroom with sitting area, offers exceptional flexibility and is pre-plumbed for an additional bath. The expansive finished lower level further enhances the home's living space, offering an expansive recreation area, a dry bar, powder room and storage. Outdoors, the fully fenced yard is beautifully landscaped and anchored by a spacious private, paver patio-ideal for summer entertaining. A detached two-car garage includes an EV charging station for modern convenience and a unique drive through feature to pass through to the rear street.
