Seamlessly connected to the charming front breakfast room with convenient access to the garage, the kitchen flows effortlessly into the formal dining area and main living spaces, creating an inviting backdrop for everything from quiet mornings to lively gatherings and holiday entertaining. Privately positioned on the main level, the expansive primary suite offers soaring vaulted ceilings and direct access to the rear deck, creating a peaceful extension of the retreat outdoors. The spacious en-suite bath has been thoughtfully updated and features a large soaking tub, renovated shower, dual vanity, and exceptional storage with two separate closets. A beautifully updated powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, an open overlook adds architectural interest while maintaining connection to the living spaces below. Two generously sized secondary bedrooms offer exceptional scale and character, including one distinguished by dramatic vaulted ceilings and elegant Palladian window detailing. A refreshed hall bath, enhanced by natural light from overhead skylights, continues the home's bright and airy feel. The fully finished lower level has been upgraded with brand new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout and offers remarkable flexibility for a variety of lifestyles. Expansive recreation and game spaces provide ample room for entertaining, relaxing, or everyday living. A private guest suite or den with a large walk-in closet and access to an updated full bath creates an ideal retreat for overnight guests, extended stays, or multigenerational living. A spacious laundry room with ceramic tile detailing is also conveniently located on this level. Extensive recent improvements include the roof, gutters, refinished hardwood floors, new carpeting, full interior and exterior painting, kitchen and bath renovations, professional landscaping, new flooring, water heater, and more.
