The highest level of appliances was installed; all professional series Thermador. Explore the cabinet’s custom features and upgrades. Hidden USB charges will ensure no one is fighting to charge their device. The pot filler offers aesthetic appeal and everyday convenience. The dual island-counters make entertaining a dream, as you move from the kitchen, to the dining room, to your outdoor patio. Enjoy outdoor living in the screened in porch fitted with lighting and a fan. The flagstone patio continues into the open air, under the charming patio strings lights. Enjoy grilling without ever thinking about propane tanks again, with the dedicated grill gas line. Before you grill, pick some herbs from the raised custom-built herb garden. Work from home in style, with a reclaimed wood wall framing the background of all your Zoom calls. The study’s built in bookshelves create plenty of storage. Of course, this space could easily be converted into a 5th bedroom, with a full bath en suite. But don’t spend too much time working, when you can be playing in the enhanced and expanded lower level. After watching the big game in the comfortable rec room, select a wine from your new 500-bottle temperature-controlled wine cellar, and then break out a couple glasses on the soapstone bar, with reclaimed brick framing the experience. If you’re having a big party, it’s no problem to host with the second full-sized refrigerator in the basement. Moving upstairs, each of the bedrooms offer a spacious retreat. Dual walk-in closets in the owner’s suite, with automatic lights, ensure that no one is fighting for closet space. The kids can enjoy a space of their own, with a cute play-nook designed into one of the bedrooms. Store your seasonal clothes in the freshness of the cedar-lined closet. The kid’s “drop-zone” allows kids a place to set their things after returning home from school. The over-sized laundry room, with built-in drying racks will make family wash day a dream. The fully finished garage offers a sanctuary for the most discerning gearhead, or simply a place to store items with the ample Gladiator shelves. And for your yard and outdoor items, the paint-matching shed gives tons of extra storage space. As you lay down each night, you can take comfort in the fact the quality of construction and materials behind the walls was treated with equal care. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with brand new windows, brand new insulation (including the full attic), new HVAC ductwork, new plumbing, re-grading of yard, new framing, top of the line gutter guards and so much more!
