Move right into this sensational 4,650+ square foot 5+ bedroom home meant for entertaining and living life to its fullest! From the relaxing wraparound front porch to the impressive double-sided floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace to the magnificent family/entertainment areas including spectacular kitchen, family room with vaulted ceilings, big 3rd floor bonus/playroom and absolutely breathtaking .5 acre grounds including a 48' (!!!) party patio, sport court with basketball hoop and outdoor fireplace ideal for creating s'mores--this home has it all! Plus it offers the tremendous versatility of not one but two primary suites--including one on the main floor with an adjacent sitting/living room! A delightful, seemingly endless front porch with easy-care composite decking is the first glimpse of wonderful things to come. Step into the living room with built-in entertainment center and inviting fireplace surrounded by stunning floor-to-ceiling stone boulders which opens to both the gourmet kitchen and fantastic XL family/game room. The state-of-the-art kitchen boasts a top-of-the-line professional-grade Thermador 6-burner plus griddle range with matching double-wide commercial-grade exhaust, built-in double ovens, two dishwashers and a big center island with seating area. And all of this opens to the huge dining area with built-in buffet as well as to the family/game room featuring impressive skylit, vaulted ceilings. FUN best describes the family room which is large enough to have a game area accommodating a regulation-sized pool table with plenty of room left over for sitting, play and bar areas--this super-sized room has something for everyone! A wall full of windows overlooks the expansive grounds and two sets of sliders lead out to the huge patio and backyard complete with sport court, outdoor firepit/patio and park-like grounds just waiting for that future pool or hockey rink! An office, conveniently located on the main level, also features vaulted ceilings, and has panoramic lush views of the surrounding acreage. There are a total of five bedrooms up; the sixth bedroom is in the lower level. The primary bedroom is situated on the first level with an adjoining sitting/dressing room and a luxurious spa-like renovated bath with dual vanities, steam shower and soaking tub. Four generous bedrooms are on the 2nd level with one bedroom having access to its own newly redone bath which could be a 2nd primary. A circular staircase leads up to the bonus room--ideal for an upstairs rec room and is large enough to comfortably play ping pong table with room left over for built-in homework/gaming stations. The lower level has a carpeted play area with handy built-in shelving, the 6th bedroom/exercise room and walk-in storage room. Not one thing was overlooked when California Closets designed the laundry/mud room. There are five built-in cubbies, separate cabinets to 'hide' hanging/drying rods, laundry baskets, utility closets and more plus there is a handy second fridge, too. Just move in, unpack and start enjoying all the space and amenities this wonderful home has to offer! See additional features for numerous updates!
