Nestled on a serene 1.5-acre lot, this extraordinary 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom brick home offers unparalleled privacy and luxury living. Surrounded by professionally landscaped grounds and fully fenced, the property boasts low-maintenance perennial plantings, creating a picturesque and tranquil environment. A circle driveway with a landscaped island leads you to the home's grand entrance, complemented by a 3-car garage and an overflow parking pad perfect for hosting guests. The brand new composite cedar roof adds to the home's elegance, while its position set back from the street provides complete privacy from the road and neighbors alike. A large landscaping buffer at the rear and side yards ensures uninterrupted seclusion. As you step inside, the custom staircase and gleaming hardwood floors welcome you into a space designed for both comfort and sophistication. The living room, featuring a cozy fireplace, connects to a delightful four-seasons room where you can enjoy views of the gardens and access the beautifully manicured yard. The formal dining room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, a chef's delight with brand new quartz countertops, custom wood cabinetry, and high-end stainless steel appliances. An eat-in area offers a serene spot to start your day, overlooking the lush gardens and a custom koi pond with a sitting ledge. There's a mudroom and laundry room conveniently located just off of the garage. The family room, just off the kitchen, is a haven of relaxation with a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and multiple doors leading to a stunning brick paver patio and the rear yard. The main floor also includes a versatile bedroom/office and a powder room that can easily be converted into a full bathroom, creating potential for a first-floor suite.

This retreat features a large bathroom with a soaking tub, dual walk-in closets, and a sitting room with a fireplace overlooking the verdant back yard.
