From summer pool parties to cozy holiday celebrations, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home is designed with entertaining in mind.

The main level offers hardwood floors throughout, a formal dining room, a sunlit study with detailed wainscoting, and a chef’s kitchen with marble counters, commercial-grade stainless appliances, and custom inset cabinetry. The kitchen opens seamlessly to a living room with a gas fireplace and sliders leading to the deck—ideal for al fresco dining or sunset cocktails.
Down a few steps, the expansive family room is a showstopper—complete with built-in bar, a second fireplace, and flexible space for a pool table, game nights, or just lounging. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat with a brand-new walk-in closet and spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub, oversized frameless shower, and dual marble vanity. Two more spacious bedrooms and a full hall bath round out the second level. The finished lower level offers bonus space for a gym, yoga studio, or playroom.
