A spacious, sun-filled formal dining room with a butler’s pantry leads seamlessly into the expansive kitchen featuring gas cooking, a walk-in pantry, a built-in desk, and ample cabinetry. From the kitchen, enjoy views through the incredible two-story breakfast room looking out on the lush grounds and pool. The adjacent family room, wrapped in windows and detailed with coffered ceilings and built-ins, offers a comfortable gathering space with direct connection to the outdoors. A formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace and stone mantle provides a quiet retreat, while the pool table room feels like a conservatory! A main-floor office provides excellent space for a comfortable work-from-home environment. Two powder rooms, as well as a mudroom providing access to the three-car garage, complete the exceptional main level. A bonus, private loft space above the garage is accessible via its own staircase and provides ample opportunity for a home office, studio, and more! Upstairs, stunning hardwood floors run throughout the versatile spaces. The primary suite is expansive and private, featuring a sunny sitting room, fireplace, dual walk-in closets, and a private balcony overlooking the backyard and pool. The en suite bathroom bathed in natural light includes a soaking tub, separate shower, and ample storage. Additional bedrooms are thoughtfully laid out, including a secondary bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a separate wing with three sizable bedrooms, a shared hall bath, and generous closet space, offering versatility for a variety of living arrangements. The lower level with brand-new LVP floors continues to add meaningful living space, with a legal bedroom, full bath, and a fitness room with mirrored walls and gym floor. The spacious recreation room is ideal for guests of all ages with a built-in bar and fridge, a third wood-burning fireplace, and built-ins. Continue to a secondary recreation space, great for game tables or indoor sports play. A large laundry area, a bonus room ideal for a theater or sports simulator, and abundant storage complete this level. Outdoors, a stone patio leads to the pool and sun deck, all surrounded by beautiful, mature landscaping, fenced yard space, and room for gardening or play. The setting offers both privacy and usability, enhancing the home’s overall livability. This home features many improvements, including replacement windows and doors (2023), a newer roof (2020), new pool equipment, and new paint and other updates throughout, making it move-in ready yet leaving room for someone to make it their own!
