A striking marble foyer establishes a dramatic arrival, anchored by a sweeping bridge that visually connects the upper level to the home’s main living spaces. Just beyond, the Great Room is defined by soaring coffered ceilings, refined millwork, and a wood-burning fireplace, while a wall of Palladian-topped French doors and windows draws in natural light and opens to an oversized deck overlooking the lush backyard.
The updated kitchen blends function and style, featuring granite countertops, an oversized island with seating, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, a walk-in pantry, and a sunlit breakfast area with direct access outdoors. Adjacent formal dining spaces flow naturally from the kitchen and main living areas, creating an intuitive layout well-suited to both casual living and large-scale entertaining. A dedicated media/family room with built-in entertainment provides flexible living space, and a richly detailed mahogany library or office offers a quiet retreat for work or study.
The first-floor primary suite is a private retreat spanning approximately 1,000 square feet, offering an expansive walk-in closet, a dedicated dressing area, and a newly renovated spa bath with soaking tub, oversized stall shower, and dual vanities. The second level includes four additional bedrooms and three full baths, all thoughtfully arranged around open sightlines overlooking the foyer and main living spaces below.
The walk-out lower level extends the home’s versatility, featuring a large recreation space with a built-in bar and direct access to the outdoors, a dedicated gym, an additional bedroom and full bath, an oversized laundry room, and abundant storage throughout. A three-car garage completes this level.
The home has undergone a comprehensive renovation throughout, with no detail overlooked. The kitchen and all bathrooms have been fully remodeled, and new hardwood floors were installed throughout the second level and staircases, with existing floors refinished where appropriate. All windows and deck doors have been replaced, along with a new roof, new gutters, a fully repaved circular driveway, a new HVAC system, and updated lighting throughout. Solar panels enhance both efficiency and long-term value. Every major improvement has been thoughtfully completed, allowing the next owner to enjoy the home immediately and effortlessly.
