This home lives large and allows for a house full of family and friends yet affords plenty of privacy thanks to the spacious design! You'll love the professional kitchen equipped with everything the chef needs to create the at home culinary experience from the built-in, full-sized refrigerator to the stainless steel viking gas range, warming drawers and double wall ovens. Another fun feature is the pass through leading to the pantry. The great room sits just off of the kitchen and dining room with high ceilings and a wall of french doors on two sides of the room, allowing a beautiful flow of natural light. The master suite has his and hers bathrooms and closets and opens into the owner's parlor. At the heart of the home there's a gorgeous staircase that takes you upstairs to two guest rooms, each with a private bath and one with another living area, a wonderful space for in-laws or a man-cave.
