The heart of the home is the massive gourmet kitchen, boasting a large center island, granite countertops, gas cooktop with pot filler, built-in wall oven and microwave, walk-in pantry, and a convenient mudroom entry area from the three-car garage. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the spacious family room with coffered ceilings and keeping room—both with cozy fireplaces—creating an open-concept design perfect for entertaining. Upstairs, retreat to the oversized master suite with a tranquil sitting area, plus one additional ensuite bedroom, and two additional bedrooms with a large jack-n-jill bath.

Added features that bring this home to a level above include wired in-wall Bose speakers (2 speakers plus center speaker) in the keeping room, bonus room, and basement living area, with additional front speaker jacks in the basement. Insulated interior walls provide added sound privacy between the formal living room and guest suite, and between the bonus room and adjacent bedrooms.

Practical touches abound, including an oversized side basement door, natural gas line on the deck for grilling, extra hose bibs and electrical outlets, and rear floodlights accessible from upstairs bedroom windows for easy maintenance—plus an additional floodlight over the driveway and basketball area.
