The centerpiece is the dramatic, main level family room addition with soaring cathedral ceilings, walls of windows, skylight & a cozy gas fireplace! The expansive, walkout finished basement with easy care tile flooring includes a full bath, lots of storage, a separate workshop / hobby room and is a perfect getaway for TV watching, playing games, or just relaxing. Efficient 2 zone heating & cooling (replaced in 2015 - main zone & 2008 - 2nd zone). To top it off, the rear deck overlooks peaceful woods & nature & is complimented by a paver patio area, walkways, stone retaining walls & paths & a convenient storage area under the deck.
