Inside, you are greeted with high ceilings, gleaming wood floors, and beautiful trim work. Soft natural light flows throughout while 9 eye-level rear side windows provide a beautiful view of the wooded backyard. The heart of this home can be found in the kitchen. Overlooking the spacious living room, backyard, and back porch, you can entertain large groups or juggle the daily tasks of homework, dinner, and backyard play with ease. While the heart of the home is the kitchen, the show stopper of the home is definitely the living room. The soaring ceilings and numerous windows create a wow worthy moment every time you walk by. A gas fireplace centers the room and invites you in. Downstairs also hosts a front flex room which serves as the office but can easily be converted to an additional bedroom. The formal dining room connects to the butlers pantry. This pantry is deep and can handle storing all of your kitchen gadgets as well as food. An adorable mudroom with custom built in storage leads you to the garage. It's the perfect drop zone to keep your entry tidy and organized. The doors slide in both directions allowing you to hide unsightly items, or to open up the bench to take your shoes on and off. The spacious half bath has a deep side closet which can easily be converted to a walk-in shower, providing a 4th full bath. Upstairs, you'll find all 4 bedrooms plus a large landing area. Additional space that allows you to move with ease but that also adds an extra layer of privacy between the bedrooms. One of the guest bedrooms is its own ensuite, offering a private full bath plus its own dedicated thermostat in the bedroom. There's also a generously sized laundry room with a stow-away folding shelf. Plenty of room if you want to do floor to ceiling storage cabinets. The oversized owner's suite boasts trey ceilings, dual walk-in closets, overlooks the backyard, and includes an extended sitting area within. This area is great for those desiring a reading nook but it is spacious enough to serve as an additional office or a Peloton perch. Open any of the 4 bedroom windows to enjoy the views and sounds of serenading birds while you read, work, or work out. The owners bath is expansive, offering large dual walk-in closets, dual vanities, and a large walk-in shower. I love the transom window over the shower allowing natural light in.
