The adjoining breakfast room opens to a brick patio. This open concept designed home also has intimate cozy spaces. Everyone can find a spot to call their own, whether it be in the heated all season room overlooking the meadow, curled up by the fireplace with a book and a cup of hot chocolate in the den or busily working in the first floor office. Relax and unwind in your luxurious master suite, complete with remodeled master bath. The master bath has a jacuzzi, separate glass shower, two vanities and two generous walk-in closets.
