The light-filled family room is anchored by a gas fireplace with a crisp white mantel, flanked by custom built-in shelving and cabinetry. Plantation shutters filter natural light while adding timeless character, and recessed lighting complements the home’s warm, neutral palette. Surround-sound speakers and stereo system create an inviting ambiance, ideal for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment. The entry level offers exceptional versatility, featuring a cozy recreation room, library, or sitting area with plush carpeting, custom-built-ins, and a fireplace, ideal for relaxing, working from home, or hosting guests. An entry-level bedroom with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath may also function as a private home office or study. The flexible floor plan allows the space to adapt effortlessly to your lifestyle. Both guest baths have been tastefully renovated with spa-inspired finishes, including frameless glass walk-in showers, classic subway tile accented with designer mosaic details, statement countertops, and polished chrome fixtures. The owner’s suite is a serene retreat featuring a tray ceiling, two custom walk-in closets, hardwood flooring, plantation shutters, and a modern ceiling fan. The luxurious en-suite bath showcases a double-sink vanity, a large soaking tub, and a walk-in shower finished in tumbled marble, offering timeless elegance and comfort. Additional highlights include hardwood flooring throughout the main living areas, ample storage, and a clean, functional garage with an overhead storage rack.
