Beautiful inside and out!! This 5 bedroom, 3 /1/2 bath home on a beautifully landscaped private 1/2 acre lot has been beautifully designed & updated. Let's start outdoors because if outdoor entertaining is your thing, this is the home for you! Central to this outdoor paradise is a stunning built-in pool that beckons with its crystalline waters, waterfall, diving board, pool basketball hoop and cocktail table. Lounge around the pool or enjoy seating/lounging in any of the several gathering areas thoughtfully arranged across the landscape. Adjacent to the pool, a heated hot tub awaits; a tranquil haven to unwind and soak away the cares of the world. Nearby, an outdoor shower stands as a tribute to rustic charm, offering a refreshing cleanse under a canopy of blooms. As our evenings begin to cool, family & friends can gather around the firepit and enjoy a mesmerizing fire under the starlit sky. Moving indoors; this home boasts a dramatic 2-story foyer which leads you into the spacious eat-in kitchen with large center island, maple cabinets, and granite countertops. The kitchen opens to the family room with floor to ceiling brick fireplace surrounded by built-ins. Also, on the Main floor, you will find an office/den, living room, 1/2 bath, laundry room and a captivating room that bridges the indoors and the outside oasis. On the second level, you will find three spacious bedrooms, an updated full bath and the master bedroom which features a beautifully remodeled ensuite bath as well as an enormous walk-in closet in which you will find a sauna plus another washer & dryer!! This home also boasts a fully finished walk-out basement with a game table area, living area, 5th bedroom, full bath and more storage space than you could ever need.
