A top-of-the-line Viking 6 burner stove, Sub Zero refrigerator, wine refrigerator, & Miele dishwasher ensures that culinary delights abound, perfect for entertaining family & friends. A wall of windows & French doors off the kitchen provide access to the Hampton style backyard with 122' of navy bulkhead, 3 blue stone patios with river rock walls, a covered heated pergola, salt water heated in-ground pool, custom fountain & summer sunsets on the bay. Adjacent to the kitchen, a spacious dining room offers direct views of the picturesque mature landscaping, while the cozy family room, complete with recessed lighting & ample space for entertainment, seamlessly connects to the elegant living room. Here, a wood-burning fireplace sets the scene for intimate gatherings, with French doors to a second pergola.
