    What's special

    The 2,500 sq. ft. main floor space of this house consists of a 1,500 sq. ft. first floor and a 1,000 sq. ft. second floor. However, in addition there is another 1,000 sq. ft. of mostly-finished basement with 8 ft. ceilings. The basement is great for entertaining and gaming and includes a large wine room, other rooms and built-in cabinets. Also, a 450 sq. ft. garage allows for two cars indoor parking, and off-street parking for two guest cars on the private driveway. The sizable attic is easy accessible and provides ample storage space. The attic houses a combination heating and air-conditioning unit for the second floor that is separately operated from the first floor heating system. The first floor is entirely covered with beautiful tropical hardwood and has two separate gas-wood burning fireplaces in the family and living rooms. The kitchen and laundry room feature top-brand appliances, cabinetry and multi-zone adjustable lighting in the kitchen and family room. The living and dining rooms feature in-wall sound speakers. In addition to the second-floor living space of 1,000 sq. ft. there is a very large, secluded deck in the rear of 500 sq. ft. that faces SSW. All four bedrooms have coffered ceilings and the three largest rooms include a modern ceiling fan with dimmable light fixture. All rooms have windows on each outer wall and all rooms are separately wired for cable and telephone. Both master and guest bathrooms have been tastefully upgraded. The entire house, garage and attic are very well insulated from heat loss and sound by wall, floor and ceiling insulation, and double-pane glass windows throughout. Many interior and exterior upgrades have carried the house over into the 21st century. Most impressive is the surrounding yard, which has been completely renovated and thoroughly upgraded with a water-saving sprinkler and drainage system, beautiful flagstones, seating walls, decorative planters, and tasteful yard and wall lighting.
