About this home

Summer evenings by the grill, snow days in the yard, holidays by the fireplaces, parties by the pool house and beautiful natural light are yours to experience. This home is ready for entertaining, imported beautiful Icelandic wood cabinetry matched with an island counter made of river bed stone is the center as you float from room to room greeting your guests. Or sit back in the solarium and enjoy a coffee, read the papers or reflect on the day. Bay windows allow you to take in birds and nature as if in your own sanctuary. After a restful night in the master suite, head into Waveny Park or town on convenient sidewalks. This location makes it idyllic for getting to wherever you're heading; work, school, gym or town.
