The cooktop can easily be converted to gas. Just off the breakfast area, the family room offers hardwood floors, skylights, and a white-washed brick fireplace that anchors the space.
Step outside to the screened porch, designed for multi-season enjoyment with skylights, a ceiling fan, and a built-in bar, all overlooking the stone patio and private backyard. A powder room and convenient main-level laundry complete this level.
Upstairs, the primary suite offers a custom walk-in closet and a beautifully updated bath with marble counters, basket-weave tile shower, and a soaking tub. Three additional bedrooms with carpeting, two linen closets, and an updated hall bath with double sinks and granite counters provide comfortable accommodations.
