The space is augmented by an architect designed music room with cathedral ceiling and customized windows. The tiled foyer has two closets, shoe storage and access to the attached two car garage. Also on the first floor are two spacious bedrooms, a full bath, laundry room and storage closets. Upstairs there are two large bedrooms each with ensuite bath. The primary bedroom has large windows capturing the beautiful view of the grounds and the bath is newly renovated. The walkout basement is divided into two rooms. On one side is an office with multiple built-in workstations.The other side includes a home gym/flex space with a sliding door that opens onto a brick patio with a hot tub and outdoor shower. The house has multi-level decks which make for great indoor/outdoor living. An above ground pool is nicely integrated into the decking and landscaping.
