A spacious living room, family room with skylights, french doors and built-ins, office, powder room, fantastic mudroom, walk-in pantry, and full bath with shower round out the main floor.

Outdoors, enjoy your own private oasis complete with heated pool/spa, custom stone fireplace, and a wonderful flat yard (perfect for play!) and gardens. Enjoy the view from the porch swing or take a boat ride on the adjacent picturesque pond on the far end of cul-de-sac - fenced, private & accessible to the few homes that own it. Move-in ready, brand new roof, freshly painted inside & out, and so much more.
