A charming front porch introduces a gracious foyer, setting the tone for the home's light-filled interiors and sophisticated open-concept layout. Designed for both everyday living and elegant entertaining, the main level features an expansive family room, a beautifully appointed dining area, and a stunning chef's kitchen. Outfitted with premium appliances including a Wolf 48" range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and Bosch dishwasher, the kitchen is further enhanced by custom cabinetry, an oversized statement island, and a meticulously designed walk-in pantry. A private first-floor office offers an ideal work-from-home retreat, while a separate main-level bedroom with en-suite bath provides exceptional flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. The mudroom, complete with custom built-ins, connects seamlessly to the attached three-car garage for everyday ease. Upstairs, four generously proportioned bedrooms include a luxurious primary suite designed as a serene retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bath with steam shower, soaking tub, and radiant heated floors. The second bedroom enjoys its own en suite bath, while the third and fourth bedrooms are connected by a thoughtfully designed Jack and Jill bath. A conveniently located second-floor laundry room completes the level. The fully finished lower level extends the home's living space with a spacious recreation room, media lounge, wet bar with beverage cooler, storage, fitness room, sixth bedroom, and full bath-ideal for entertaining or extended stays. In-slab hydronic heat floors in basement, along with drain tile and a sump pump system, ensures year-round comfort and peace of mind. Additional highlights include dual-zoned HVAC, wide-plank flooring, bespoke millwork, curated lighting, and high-end finishes throughout.
