Hardwood flooring flows through the foyer, dining room, kitchen, and breakfast area, while the dramatic great room showcases exposed timber framing, recessed lighting, a full wall of custom solid cherry built-ins, and a striking two-story double-sided stone wood-burning fireplace(with components to convert to gas ) shared with the gourmet kitchen. Designed for both entertaining and everyday living, the kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a large center island with breakfast bar, built-in desk area, buffet area, matching built-in refrigerator, Viking 5-burner gas cooktop, Viking wall oven, microwave, dishwasher, dual deep sinks, and a bright breakfast room surrounded by windows overlooking the scenic property.

The east wing of the main level offers an additional private suite with custom wall cabinetry, walk-in closet, recessed lighting, and full bath—ideal for guests or multigenerational living. A well-appointed laundry room with double sink, reverse osmosis system, and abundant cabinetry, along with a mudroom and convenient half bath, completes the main level and leads to the oversized three-car insulated garage with high ceilings, wall heater, and openers. Upstairs, a balcony overlook provides the perfect office or sitting area, along with two additional bedrooms, Which one bedroom adjoins and shares access to a full hall bath with the other .
