The three season porch integrates easily with the rest of the home to provide a great flow for entertaining along with a spacious family room with an adjacent wet bar. The master bedroom is comfortable, well equipped and flows out to the back yard. All bedrooms are en suite. A finished basement offers additional finished living space. The heated three car garage, sprinkler system, security system and beautifully lit up garden complete this home.
