Integrated Bluetooth speakers on the first floor and in the basement, along with smart-home Wi-Fi features, bring modern convenience into everyday living.
At the heart of the home is a stunning, custom-designed kitchen featuring natural-finish cabinetry, an impressive 36-inch gas range, range hood, built-in microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, built-in wine refrigerator, and a pot filler. Beautifully appointed and thoughtfully equipped, this kitchen blends timeless style with the functionality today's homeowners appreciate.
The home's beautifully designed living spaces continue upstairs, where the primary bedroom offers a private En-Suite bathroom. Custom-designed bathrooms on the second and third floors showcase the home's commitment to detail, while the additional flex room offers possibilities for a private office, dressing room, or personalized retreat.
