This gorgeous and pristine home checks all the boxes! Beautifully updated throughout with lovely flow for entertaining and perfectly proportioned room sizes, your ideal lifestyle is here! The generous foyer leads to the spacious living room with large windows and a cozy fireplace, making it the perfect place to socialize and relax. Cross the wide entrance hallway and enter the welcoming dining room, which has plenty of space for an extra large table and room on the side for additional pieces. Entertaining is a delight here. The upscale white kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances boasts a large marble-topped island around which friends and family can gather. Additionally, there is an integrated butler's pantry from which to execute the latest cocktail or plated dessert. Stylish cabinetry and a convenient pantry area offer good storage. Off the kitchen is the huge, light-filled family room which spills out onto the large multi-level deck and terrace. The vaulted ceilings and walls of windows create a warm and wonderful environment in which to linger. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a fireplace, 2 walk-in closets, and a gleaming bath with a large soaking tub and separate oversized shower. Additional bedrooms are lovely sizes and each, delightfully, has it's own recently updated bath. Additional spaces include a generous, sunny mudroom and a multipurpose 'nook', for games or office use. Lower level has nice ceiling height and great finished rec room space with fireplace and exercise area. Add in the urbane, temperature controlled wine cellar, laundry and additional storage and the lower level rocks! The oversized back garden has been professionally landscaped and is a private oasis for you and your family/friends to enjoy. So many additional improvements: New water service to the house, new driveway, newer HVAC, newer 2nd floor laundry. Amazing location, near train, beach and schools!
