This stone and cedar home was built in 2008 by acclaimed McCullough Residential Builders, offering 4 finished levels with high ceilings, multiple gathering spaces and generous outdoor space.

The third level offers additional space for an office, study or recreation room with extensive built-in shelving with plenty of sunlight, and two additional bedrooms and a full bath.
The recently renovated lower level is a grown-up play space with a 1000+ bottle wine cellar, full wet bar, tasting table, exercise room, and wide open lounge space. Completed by a seventh bedroom and full bath. The rear garden is lush and private, enhanced by a charming water feature and flagstone patio.
