The home's eastern corridor leads you through sunlit halls to the primary suite, a true retreat featuring a dramatic vaulted ceiling with a chandelier, direct access to the pool and spa, and unobstructed views of the surrounding mountains. The spa-inspired primary bathroom includes dual walk-in closets, a jetted soaking tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in stone shower— The formal dining room impresses with a coffered ceiling, slate floors, and tranquil views of the lush grounds and pool area, offering the perfect backdrop for memorable dinners. Adjacent is the gourmet kitchen which features a large center island with an abundance of storage and a secondary dishwasher. Double Viking ovens, a built-in Viking refrigerator, Wolf gas cooktop, walk-in pantry, and abundant custom maple cabinetry make this an entertainer's dream. Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is the warm and inviting family room, complete with its own stone fireplace and generous space for relaxing or entertaining.
The north wing of the home includes two additional guest bedrooms, each with en suite bathrooms and walk-in closets with built-in organizers. A spacious and functional laundry room is accessible from both the home's interior and attached garage.
Designed to celebrate the beauty of indoor-outdoor living, five sets of French doors open to the expansive backyard oasis. Here, you'll find a heated pool with built-in spa, covered pergolas,
