About This Home

As of June 2022

NO GO/SHOW UNTIL FRIDAY 4/8
Charming and sophisticated, this meticulously maintained 5 bed, 3 full/2 half bath home has everything today's family is looking for. Thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and everyday lifestyle, this house is a must see.
Walk through the front door into the sun filled living room equipped with a wood burning fireplace you will immediately fall in love with this home. The large family room off the living room leads you directly into the stunning, custom designed kitchen with french doors out to the patio and fully fenced backyard with nothing but land trust behind it. The gourmet kitchen has a large island, ample counter/cabinet space, stainless steel appliances and a built-in desk. Finishing off the 1st floor is a separate office with a cozy bay window seat for privacy & comfort for working from home, a gorgeous wet bar, powder room, & large mudroom with custom storage solutions and individual cubbies. Off of the kitchen is a staircase that leads down to an oversized, carpeted windowed playroom with a 4-bed bunk room and half bath.
The 2nd floor includes a large laundry room and oversized, linen/storage closet alongside 4 beds & 3 full baths. The primary suite leaves nothing to be desired - a walk-in closet, custom bathroom with soaking tub, large Frameless glass shower, double vanities and herringbone floors. 3 additional bedrooms, one with an en suite full bath, round out the top level in addition to 1 more full bath in the hall.
