Attention to detail is evident from the moment you arrive and will appeal to the most discriminating buyers. Upon entering the elegant foyer, you'll appreciate the gorgeous three-story staircase, beautiful hardwoods, custom millwork, and 10' to 11' tall ceilings throughout the home. To the right is an amazing family room with built-ins, wide windows and window seat allowing beautiful views of the surrounding land and magnificent sunsets. The family room is open to the updated and beautifully appointed kitchen featuring tasteful finishes, sleek granite countertops, double ovens, ample cabinetry, walk-in pantry, and charming built-in dining area.

Another beautifully renovated full bath and convenient laundry complete this level. The turned staircase leads to the third level featuring two additional bedrooms both with double closets, and another updated third bath that looks like it's straight out of a magazine. And there's so much more... A finished walk-out lower level offers a large recreation room and separate areas for additional living space, office area, storage, workout room, or any number of options. Outside, you'll enjoy over 3 acres of your own private oasis located adjacent to preserved land and the Oversee Farm Park with beautiful walking trails.
