Artisan details are found throughout, including crown molding, custom cabinetry, and finely-styled spaces such as the powder bath and laundry room, each with onyx countertops and thoughtful finishes. Upgrades ensure your peace of mind, including Pella windows, newer HVAC systems, a full-house PEX repipe, water conditioning system, and hardwired security. Outdoor living is highlighted by a saltwater pool and spa, expansive sundeck, Fire Magic BBQ with quartzite bar, multiple patios with heaters and fans for year-round enjoyment and direct access to the horse trails.
