On the second floor is the Mastersuite with ensuite Bathroom and huge walk-in closet as well as sitting area or separate dressing room plus three more bedrooms and two full bathrooms - all of them offer granite countertops. French doors from the eat-in kitchen open up to an expansive deck with plenty of space for dinner parties and lounging, overlooking the property. The fully finished lower level offers vast space for play, media and a seating area in front of the gas fireplace and sliders open to a covered deck with access to the lawn.
