Current homeowners have upgrade this 4 bedroom, 4 full bathroom home over the years to improve the inside living spaces and create a magnificent outdoor living area. The entry foyer leads to a spacious and comfortable living room with beautiful brick fireplace. Crown molding and chair rail add a classic touch. A second brick fireplace can be found encompassing a corner of the dining room creating an atmosphere perfect for large or intimate dining parties. The casing of the doorway into the kitchen was widened to allow the spaces to flow into one another. Eat-in kitchen features abundant cabinetry and counter space to allow the home chef to spread out while working. The family room is currently being used as a work and study from home space, but with the location adjacent to the kitchen is perfect for today's modern living. The first floor is completed by three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Located upstairs, the primary bedroom suite allows for privacy with large bedroom, walk-in closet and full bath. Finished walk-out lower level offers a family room area with bar. The bar features a gorgeous wood top with natural edge. An addition huge area for game room, full bath, and laundry room finish off the space. The living spaces extend outside to the oversized screened in porch, stone terrace with built-in fire pit, and in-ground gunite pool with pebbletec, stone water-line, automatic pool cover, and phone automation. Custom stacked stone retaining wall adds additional interest. Utility upgrades include connecting to public water and sewer and bringing a natural gas line to the house. The hybrid furnace currently runs off the buried propane tank, but can easily be converted to natural gas without needing to replace the full furnace. There is also a woodstove with hood and air handler for additional heat source. 17kw home generator with automated switch for emergency needs. Roof, siding, soffits, fascia, gutters and most windows replaced. Driveway was enlarged when replaced to allow for ample parking. Ready to move in and enjoy!
