The main level offers a flexible floor plan with the option to add a rear sunroom, allowing you to tailor the space to your lifestyle. High-quality laminate hardwood flooring enhances the Family Room, Dining Room, Kitchen, Breakfast Room, Foyer, Owner’s Entry, and Pantry, while oak stairs and railing lead from the main level to the second floor, adding warmth and timeless appeal. Upstairs, the expansive owner’s suite is designed as a private retreat and is joined by four additional secondary bedrooms and three full baths, providing ample space and comfort for a large or growing household. Upgraded tile in the owner’s suite and enhanced carpet padding throughout the home add to the overall comfort and quality. The lower level offers even more versatility, with the potential to create a recreation room, media room, den, or an additional bedroom suite, depending on your needs. With approximately 3,538 square feet of living space, this home is designed with personalization in mind and includes upgrade-level cabinetry with brushed nickel hardware, granite countertops, and an extended kitchen island ideal for gathering and entertaining. A sixth bedroom with a full bath may be added on the main level.
