Spanning 3,593 square feet, this two-level residence welcomes you with a grand two-story foyer, where a statement staircase and a catwalk overlook the masterfully crafted living and dining areas. A wall of windows invites warm, natural light to fill the space, creating a serene atmosphere perfect for both relaxation and entertaining.

The chef's kitchen is a culinary dream, boasting honed travertine mesh mountain mosaic wall tiles and ample space for meal preparation. The adjacent enclosed porch, transformed into a charming 4-season room, offers a quiet nook for reading or enjoying your morning coffee.
Upstairs, the bonus room serves as the ultimate home theater and entertainment spot, complete with a wet bar. A portion of the attic was finished by the builder to create a home gym, and there is an option for the new owner to keep the equipment if desired. The outdoor space is equally enchanting, with beautifully landscaped gardens that provide a perfect setting for those with a green thumb.
Practical updates include a new roof in 2015, replacement of all windows in 2009 (vinyl with metal clad), and updated HVAC units in 2010, ensuring peace of mind for years to come. The super-insulated garage door and newly finished deck (2024) further enhance the home's appeal.
