Hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, which features a formal living room with oversized windows, ideal for morning coffee or afternoon tea—and a formal dining room designed for memorable gatherings. The well-appointed kitchen will delight any home chef with granite countertops, a five-burner electric range with heavy-duty hood, rich wood cabinetry, curved two-tier island, stainless steel appliances, a large refrigerator with double drawers, pantry, and double sink overlooking the backyard. Just off the kitchen, the sunlit breakfast area includes a granite bar, additional cabinetry, bump-out window, and sliding door with transom, opening to a large composite deck, perfect for outdoor entertaining.

Upstairs, plush carpeting and high ceilings frame a thoughtful layout. The expansive primary suite includes a tray-ceiling bedroom, walk-in closet, private study or nursery, and spa-inspired bath with jetted tub, custom-tiled walk-in shower, double vanity, and abundant natural light. A second ensuite bedroom is complemented by two additional bedrooms, a dual-vanity full bath, and a convenient laundry room. The unfinished walk-out lower level provides ample storage and outstanding potential for future customization, featuring a rough-in bath, daylight window, and full double doors leading to a concrete patio. An oversized concrete driveway and spacious three-car garage offer excellent parking, storage, and workshop space. Meticulously maintained, this exceptional home also features geothermal heating and cooling, 9+ foot ceilings, central vacuum, ceiling fans, and charming front window candle outlets that add seasonal warmth.
