A sophisticated den/home office offers custom built-ins, a gas fireplace, crown molding, and direct access to the patio and yard. A nearby powder room is beautifully appointed with marble flooring, a pedestal sink, and plantation shutters.
At the heart of the home is an expansive, light-filled gourmet kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A large center island anchors the space, complemented by granite countertops, furniture-grade custom cabinetry and premium Bosch and GE Monogram appliances. The adjoining breakfast room opens directly to the beautifully landscaped grounds, while an elegant wet bar with wine refrigerator and the main-level laundry room are conveniently nearby.
The sun-drenched sunroom is one of the home's most captivating spaces, featuring a beadboard vaulted ceiling, custom built-ins, and floor-to-ceiling windows on two sides overlooking the manicured grounds. The main living room offers a warm gathering space with a wood-burning fireplace, intricate dentil-molding mantel, custom built-ins, and crown molding.
The second level features four spacious bedrooms with hardwood flooring. The luxurious primary suite includes three closets, including a walk-in, and a dedicated dressing area. Its spa-inspired en-suite bath features heated sandstone floors, an oversized rain shower, dual vanities, crown molding, and a private water closet. Three additional bedrooms share a beautifully appointed hall bath, while two linen closets and an adjoining storage room provide exceptional functionality.
