About This Home

As of January 2014

Stunning amidst a tranquil country setting with rear deck and pool, this sensational home has a contemporary appeal. You'll love the sense of space that greets you at the front door as you look upon high-ceiling-ed rooms with ivory walls and dark timber floors. Light sweeps through the sunken living room adjoining the family room, while formal dining is both elegant and comfortable opposite the foyer. A soaring, sky-lit ceiling in the crisp, clean kitchen - the home's centerpiece - adds a cheerful vibe to this entertaining spot with both counter and casual seating. Two upper levels contain five bedrooms, study, and three bright and breezy bathrooms. Homeowners will enjoy the amenities found en suite in the master bedroom with its walk-in dressing closets,large window seat, newly remodeled bath and private deck with meadow views. A second floor laundry room is a pleasant surprise. When additional recreational space is needed, the finished basement serves nicely while the 3-car garage provides segway to a mudroom and pantry.
