About this home

This property captivates with its effortless elegance, impeccable quality, convenient seclusion, and endless possibilities. You are greeted by a truly gourmet kitchen featuring chef-grade appliances, a full butler's pantry, & a spacious open floor plan that flows seamlessly into the living area. A bright dining room provides access to the private backyard, while a versatile living room adds to the home's cozy ambiance. The first floor also hosts a 3 season porch and a spa-like indoor pool. Before heading upstairs, you'll find a massive game room with a half bathroom, which could easily be used as a 5th bedroom. The second floor is home to 4 en-suite bedrooms, each equipped with custom built closets. Walk through the three-car garage to an additional connected barn, which contains extra living areas ideal for a home business, in-law accommodations, or au pair apartment. There is also a secondary garage space with an oversized door, and over a 1000 sq. ft walk up attic- ready to finish!
