About This Home
As of June 2025Good taste and refinement are two words that come to mind when you step into this impeccable home. The perfect balance of modern updates with some beauty and charm hidden in the details. This home is tucked in to the trees along Bittersweet golf course's 18th fairway. You won't believe the stunning aerial photos. Through the front door you see sparkling hardwood floors, leading to the formal dining and sitting "wine room". Pay attention to the details in the molding and transom windows. Relax in the 4 seasons room with window exposure on all sides, or get cozy by the fire in the living room. Prepare to be stunned by the kitchen with beautiful view of the back yard and golf course. Off the kitchen is an additional room that could serve as your new office OR an addition in law suite for a family member with a convenient bathroom near by and possible private entrance. The real stunner, is the master suite. The home features two DRESSING ROOMS, not just walk in closets. No expense was spared creating this private space separately for her AND him. The master bath is amazing with beautiful tile work and the tub has a breathtaking look out view. And just when you think that this home couldn't be any more perfect head downstairs. The elegant wood finish on the wet bar has the feel of a high end pub, there is a giant recreation space with plenty of ambiance to watch your favorite movie on a large tv or projector. There is yet another bathroom and bedroom! This home is sure to impress from top to bottom!
