A grand oak staircase with custom runner serves as a focal point, while hardwood flooring, six-panel interior doors, a first-floor office, central vacuum system, and Lutron smart switches with hub enhance everyday living. The beautifully updated kitchen features 42" white shaker soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, decorative tile backsplash, center island, and stainless-steel appliances including a WiFi-enabled Samsung refrigerator. The main level also offers both a separate dining room and a spacious dinette area, with the dinette providing direct access to the rear deck through French doors, creating an ideal layout for everyday living and entertaining. Smart-home features include Hunter Douglas Alexa-enabled remote-controlled blinds in the living room, dining room, office, and primary bedroom, along with cordless Honeycomb Blackout Shades in all three secondary bedrooms.
