The open-concept family room and eat-in kitchen, updated in 2019, feature custom cabinetry, Quartzite countertops, and premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances. Elegant living spaces with a wood-paneled painted library add a cozy ambiance, and an oversized living room with hardwood floors and a wood-burning fireplace exude warmth and character. The luxurious primary suite, also renovated in 2019, includes a spa-like bathroom with a freestanding tub, dual vanity, and two custom closets. The recently renovated powder room features heated floors, updated lighting, and a custom vanity with a Quartzite countertop. Additional updated baths on the second and third floors provide modern comfort. The basement has been completely updated with a new half bath, laundry room with custom cabinets and tile, and luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring in the rec room.
