A chic dining room, butler's pantry, eat-in kitchen and cozy den are seamlessly connected and open onto three gracious porches, perfect for effortless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The grand primary suite offers a serene retreat with a private sitting room, complemented by five additional generously sized bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and one half bath-providing both comfort and versatility. The third floor presents a flexible space ideal for a home office, playroom, or studio, while the expansive lower level offers abundant storage options and a wine cellar to suit the most discerning collector. Outside, a three-car garage ensures ample parking and storage. Beyond, a pool and spa are nestled behind a charming wooden gate draped in Sweet Autumn Clematis, creating a private oasis for relaxation and leisure.
