This lovingly maintained home features a welcoming entryway/foyer leading into a spacious living room with custom built-ins, flowing seamlessly into the formal dining area. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, with a central island and high-end appliances, and connects to a generously sized family room featuring a remodeled fireplace and newly constructed mudroom with custom cabinetry. The family room's staircase leads to a private great room featuring a remodeled full bath, ample storage, and an exercise/gym area. This creative space is ideal for an au-pair or potential in-law accommodation if desired. The upper-level main area includes a luxurious primary suite with an energy-efficient pellet fireplace, a spa-like bath with a steam shower and tub, plus three additional bedrooms and a renovated bathroom. A dedicated laundry area, and pull-down attic stairs leading up to additional storage with an oversized cedar-lined closet provide further convenience. The finished lower level adds additional space. Home bonuses include an energy efficient Geo-Thermal heating system and a whole-house generator. Outdoors, relax on the private rear property beneath a shaded gazebo, surrounded by two man-made waterfalls and fragrant floral specimens, or enjoy a short walk to The Tavern & Inn at Gray Barns or the Silvermine Arts Guild & Market.
