South Shore has a history of producing greatness, and 7347 Merrill is a testament to that legacy. It has been an honor to work with the owner, whose commitment to quality transforms every project into a masterpiece. Unlike a typical "flip," this 4,000-square-foot home was built with exceptional thought, care, and the finest materials. This stunning property features: - Main Floor: A sun-drenched living room with a custom wood-burning fireplace, an expansive dining area, and a chef's kitchen. The main level includes a large mudroom, two full en-suites (including a primary suite with a luxury bath and walk-in closet), and an additional half bath for guests. - Upper Level: A "kids' cave" featuring two large bedrooms and a full bathroom, all centered around a spacious great room. - Lower Level: A massive recreation room, a laundry room, an additional bedroom, a full bathroom, and ample storage space. - Outdoor Space: An oversized city lot with a brand-new deck perfect for entertaining, a large yard, and a 2.5-car garage. I invite you to experience the quality and craftsmanship of this home in person. Please let me know if you would like to schedule a private showing.
