Graciously appointed with first class finishes, from the miles of wood mouldings to the lavish grounds, no expense has been spared. It starts with the distinguished, numbered mailbox announcing the home's classic white front, accented with brick finishes and black shutters. Upon entering you are greeted with a 2-story foyer boasting polished marble floors and a gleaming chandelier. The study is furnished with built-in bookshelves & overhead recessed lighting. The formal living & dining rooms are exquisitely finished in Brazilian Cherry wood flooring, lighted wall sconce accents and a tasteful chandelier. The sun-filled eat-in kitchen features 42" Maple cabinets, endless granite countertops, a tumbled marble backsplash and is fully equipped with GE stainless steel appliances. The great room provides a place to gather in front of the wood burning fireplace complimented with a hand-made mantle and granite surround.
