Truly a one of a kind home! This beautiful English tudor features all the mondern ameneties you could find. Sellers have recently completed an addition of a luxurious master bathroom with double vanities, travertine, frameless shower, and walk-in closet. Also newly completed, is a FABULOUS outdoor living space unlike anything you've seen; off the kitchen rests an outdoor den, fully screened in, that acts as an extension of the living space; also outside you will find an eating area, and on the side of the house, additional outdoor living, perfect for enjoying an ice-cold drink! The kitchen is a chef's dream: granite countertops, big pantry, and custom cabinetry. The interior main-level is beautifully appointed with 2 sets of French doors leading outside, gorgeous gas log fireplace, over-sized dining room, big living room, and relaxing sunroom that sellers use as an upscale breakfast room. You will also love the covered parking, and killer wine celler in basement! This home is a MUST SEE!
