A granite center island, gas-burning fireplace, adjacent butler’s pantry with copper sink and wine fridge, and doors open to the breakfast porch and large patio with a full outdoor kitchen make this space ideal for everyday living and large-scale entertaining. Upstairs, the second floor features three generous bedrooms, including a sprawling primary suite with a full bath and an adjoining office or dressing room. A full laundry room adds convenience on this level. The third floor offers even more flexibility, with three additional bedrooms and a spacious bonus family room—perfect for guests, work, or play.
