At the back of the house, an expansive great room boasts gleaming hardwood floors that run throughout the house, a stone fireplace, sliders leading to the deck, a ceiling fan, and a brand-new gourmet kitchen equipped with an induction range and quartz countertops, seamlessly blending modern convenience with classic charm. Upstairs, the spacious master suite includes walk-in closets and an en-suite bath, along with three additional large bedrooms and a sparkling new full bath. The lower level features a walkout with beautiful woodwork, a large wet bar, and a stunning prep room that once housed a sink and stove but now showcases a fantastic butcher block. Great home!
