The heart of the home is the massive gourmet kitchen, boasting a large center island, granite countertops, gas cooktop with pot filler, built-in wall oven and microwave, walk-in pantry, and a convenient mudroom entry area from the three-car garage. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the spacious family room with coffered ceilings and keeping room—both with cozy fireplaces—creating an open-concept design perfect for entertaining. Upstairs, retreat to the oversized master suite with a tranquil sitting area, plus one additional ensuite bedroom, and two additional bedrooms with a large jack-n-jill bath.

Insulated interior walls provide added sound privacy between the formal living room and guest suite, and between the bonus room and adjacent bedrooms.
