The chef’s kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, a gas range, stone counters, and a breakfast nook opening to the formal dining room—ideal for everyday living and entertaining.
Upstairs, the oversized primary suite is a true retreat with its own fireplace, spa-like bath featuring a Euro shower and soaking tub, and a new walk-in closet. Each additional bedroom is a ensuite with hardwood floors, ensuring comfort for family and guests. Additional highlights include a first-floor office, a partially finished lower-level living room with fireplace and custom cabinetry, a heated 2-car attached garage, and a bonus detached garage—newly insulated with a finished upper level with AC unit, wired and ready for a split unit, perfect for a studio, gym, or office.
