Rich wood floors throughout the first-floor entry and living spaces. Formal dining room leads to the gourment kitchen with two pantries, built in microwave, wall oven, Granite countertops and gray subway tile plus a breakfast bar. The added morning room continues the cabinetry, countertops, and subway tile in the wet bar area complete with commercial grade ice maker, beverage fridge and sink. The stone gas fireplace is the center piece of the living room. The primary bedroom tucked away on the first floor offers privacy and luxury with the warm wood flooring, walk-in closet complete a custom closet system, a large bathroom with soaking tub and tile shower. The sitting room off the primary bedroom is a gift you didn't know you would enjoy until now. Added windows in this bedroom along with the shiplap detail rounds out the style and detail this home embodies. Guest bedrooms 2 and 3 are conveniently located on the other side of the first floor and share the hall bathroom. This comfortable floorplan is the result of careful planning and the additional 4’ bump out on the living room as well as the thoughtful additions of the morning room and sitting room off the primary bedroom. Continue to the second-floor bonus room, 4th bedroom and full bathroom. Take notice of the designer touches throughout like the Stikwood wall details along the breakfast bar and hall wall, the Board and Batton trim, Shiplap, custom light fixtures, plus glass doors on the pantries and laundry room. The wow factor does not end inside this home. The grounds are professionally landscaped, fenced and irrigated with water provided from a separate on site well. You’ll love to entertain outside with the extensively pavered patio with two seating areas and outside gas fireplace. The pergola offers a retractable sunshade – a necessity you didn’t know you needed but now can’t live without! Dedicated gas hook up for the BBQ will keep you on your grilling game.
