Also on the first floor is a mudroom/laundry room which is adjacent to the large 2 car attached garage.

Also on the second floor are three additional bedrooms - one with en suite bath and two which share easy access to a bright hall bath with double vanity and skylight. The fine design found in this home continues to the incredible lower level with large rec room, separate play room with fun 'playhouse' closet, large exercise room, 5th bedroom (or very private office), full bath and huge storage room. Ceiling heights custom and finishes are impressive throughout the house: exquisite hardwood flooring throughout 1st and 2nd floors, gorgeous over-sized windows, beautifully scaled rooms, meticulous maintenance both inside and out, elegant moldings in living and dining rooms and a coveted, hard to find attached garage. The outdoor oasis is tranquil and serene with lush landscaping and large patio. The extra large lot allows for wonderful outdoor entertaining and play.
