Tucked away in Grove Hill in a natural setting alive with diverse wildlife, this classic home embodies enduring elegance. The main level is entered via a grand foyer that is open to formal dining and living rooms that flow into the kitchen and breakfast area. The kitchen houses a full suite of SS appliances, including the main refrigerator/freezer, a beverage refrigerator and a brand new gas cooktop and double wall ovens. Also brand new is a stylish subway tile backsplash. Dine at bar seating in the kitchen, in the breakfast area, or clearly your best option, just outside on the cozy back porch with its expansive view of the private lake. One wing of the main level hosts a tasteful powder room and the suite of primary rooms featuring a substantial bedroom, bath and closet, and a dignified study/library with fireplace. The wide, stately staircase to the lower level is also on this side of the home. The opposite wing holds a second study, a laundry room so large you'll look forward to household chores, and access to the massive 3 car garage with brand new interlocking plastic tile floor.
