The kitchen transitions seamlessly into a glass-wrapped sunroom overlooking the spectacular grounds. Two powder rooms and generous storage complete the main level. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite is a private sanctuary with sweeping backyard views, a spacious sitting room with a third fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, an oversized shower, and a private water closet. An en-suite princess suite offers additional privacy, while two beautifully appointed bedrooms feature charming window seats, picturesque backyard views, and a shared Jack-and-Jill bath. A flexible fifth upper-level bedroom/bonus room offers endless possibilities, and the designer laundry suite is exceptionally appointed with abundant cabinetry and a center sorting island. The fully finished lower level extends the home's exceptional living and entertaining space with an impressive recreation area, a full wet bar, media and game spaces, a fourth fireplace, an additional bedroom, a full bath, and substantial storage. Outdoors, the rear grounds unfold into a true resort-style retreat with a sparkling in-ground pool, an expansive custom bluestone patio, lush mature landscaping, a gazebo, dedicated pool storage, and a full bathroom with direct exterior access.
