A manicured approach leads to a covered front porch and elegant double glass doors, opening into a grand two-story foyer with custom marble inlay flooring. A sweeping curved staircase rises to an expansive landing and charming library loft overlook, setting a tone of timeless sophistication. Designed for both entertaining and everyday comfort, the main level features a formal living room with a distinctive curved wall that flows effortlessly into a warm, wood-paneled den with a fireplace. The inviting family room continues the rich detailing, complete with custom built-ins, a wet bar, and a wood-burning fireplace, while sliding glass doors open to a spacious deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The formal dining room is both elegant and welcoming, showcasing classic chair rail and detailed trim, along with floor-to-ceiling double windows that flood the space with natural light—perfect for intimate dinners or large-scale entertaining. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is a true showpiece. A large center island, custom cabinetry with built-in storage, and honed granite countertops are paired with high-end stainless steel appliances, including a WOLF cooktop, double ovens, warming drawer, and Fisher Paykel dishwasher—blending function and style beautifully. A sun-filled breakfast and sunroom provides a peaceful retreat, with soaring vaulted ceilings and walls of insulated glass that frame serene backyard views. Step outside to a private Trex deck draped with wisteria-covered arbor, ideal for relaxing evenings or gathering around a fire pit. A gas-connected Weber grill makes outdoor entertaining effortless, while a stone patio overlooks lush, professionally landscaped woodland gardens. The fenced backyard, enhanced by soft night lighting, offers both privacy and a tranquil setting. The main-level owner’s suite is a luxurious sanctuary, featuring a spacious sitting area and an expansive walk-in closet. The spa-inspired bath is thoughtfully designed with double vanities, marble countertops, vessel sinks, a jetted tub, and a separate steam shower, all finished with exquisite custom tile and stonework. Upstairs, a wide landing overlooks the grand foyer below and leads to four generously sized bedrooms, each with double closets—two cedar-lined—and access to en-suite baths with shared tub/shower spaces illuminated by skylights. A large laundry room with custom cabinetry, a wet sink, and included washer and dryer adds convenience. The full daylight basement, complete with a fireplace, offers endless potential for a game room, media space, or workshop. A pool table remains, and direct access to the backyard enhances its flexibility. Throughout the home, 10-foot ceilings on both levels, rich hardwood floors, intricate trim work, and recessed lighting create a refined atmosphere. Modern upgrades—including new zoned HVAC systems, a Generac generator, and dual water heaters—provide comfort and peace of mind, while features like a whole-house attic fan, gutter guards, French drains, and an irrigation system reflect exceptional care. An oversized rear-entry two-car garage completes the property, offering ample space for storage, hobbies, or additional equipment. More than just a home, this property is a private retreat—where classic elegance and modern amenities come together in a setting designed for both relaxation and memorable living.
