Perfectly suited for entertaining friends and family, the living room, kitchen and family room are all connected through the open-walled central dining room. The kitchen has been completely remodeled to include a large island, abundant cabinet space and granite countertops. The large family room addition at the rear of the house is both spacious and cozy with large windows that overlook the well-landscaped backyard. Two nicely-sized bedrooms, one with a custom-finished closet, and recently remodeled full bath complete the first floor. A second floor expansion not only includes a new roof, walls and windows, but allows the Master Suite to accommodate 2 walk-in closets and an expansive Master Bath. The large Master Bedroom comfortably fits a king-size bed and the grand attached Master Bath is complete with dual vanities, large bathtub, and a considerable shower with dual showerheads.
