The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat, complete with a spa-like bath featuring heated floors and a tiled walk-in shower. Upstairs, you'll find a second primary suite, two additional bedrooms with a full bath, and a dedicated cedar closet. The fully finished basement adds exceptional living space, featuring a recreation room with a wet bar, a cozy TV area with a fireplace, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath. This home has been meticulously maintained with significant recent capital improvements, including three new Amana HVAC systems and two new 75-gallon water heaters added in 2026. A Vantage custom lighting system featuring two motorized chandeliers was installed in 2025, alongside additional high-end systems like a natural gas generator, an Aqua Chill purified water system, and an automated irrigation system. The outdoor space is a private paradise designed for relaxed luxury. Enjoy an inviting in-ground heated pool—complete with a fresh liner and new pump—and a poolside pavilion equipped with cable TV access. The expansive patio is built for outdoor entertaining, boasting a chef's kitchen outfitted with premium Fire Magic appliances.
