Providing formal & informal living spaces & a unique & versatile floorplan, the 1st floor has pegged oak floors & custom wood ceilings (built by the owner of Reeds Ferry Lumber - this home was superbly constructed in every way!) The custom kitchen is a cooks delight with a large center island, 5 burner gas cooktop, double ovens & SubZero fridge, plus oodles of custom Shaker style cabinets & granite counters. The kitchen is open to a beautiful "breakfast nook" w/custom built-ins surrounding a window-seat overlooking the serene yard and sliders to the new patio to enjoy during the warmer months. The formal living room has a beautiful stone fireplace and French doors to the yard while the family room offers a second fireplace and more custom built-ins. The 1st floor primary bedroom is luxurious w/vaulted ceilings, a splendid walk-in closet w/custom shelving & a spa-like primary bath. On the 2nd floor are 3 additional bedrooms & a full bath, plus tons of storage for all your seasonal needs. There is an oversized heated 2 car attached garage but the piece-de-resistance is a 1500+/- sqft detached heated "garage" that can accommodate up to 6 cars - make it into an ADU (w/proper permitting), home office, studio - the opportunities are endless! New standby generator. Central A/C. Meticulously maintained, a must see!
