An updated center island kitchen and three full, updated baths enhance the livability of this premier 4,500+ square-foot home. Introduced by a freshly-painted foyer with mahogany floors, deep crown moldings and a double door coat closet, there are sightlines into the adjacent step-down living room. This elegant space contains a bay window, crown dentil moldings and mahogany floors. Adjoining the living room is a parquet-floored dining room and a sunroom filled with natural light from three window walls as well as a wet bar and French doors to the backyard. Of special note is the upgraded gourmet kitchen offering a tiered, granite-topped center island with seating for four, maple cabinets, custom stonework surrounding a Wolf stainless steel gas range and fully windowed dining area. The open flow continues into a soaring two-story family room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning brick fireplace.
