A convenient mudroom, located off the kitchen, leads out to a back patio, with built-in grill and to the driveway, spacious backyard, pool and garage with heated bonus room above. The completely re-designed second floor features a luxe primary suite, with new entry and treetop views of the spectacular backyard. The luxurious spa bathroom has a freestanding tub, steam shower, double sinks and heated floors.
