As you approach the circle drive with a brick paver ribbon, you are met with a beautiful blue stone path and impressive covered entry leading to the front door. A bright, two story foyer greets you with its show stopping bridal staircase in this beautiful marble entryway. The gallery summons as you step through to find inside the home its grand living spaces with soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, custom trim and moldings, and high-end finishes throughout.
