As you approach, the expansive paver driveway sets an impressive tone, leading to a two-car attached garage and offering ample parking for guests. This striking entrance is just a preview of the grandeur that awaits inside. Step through the grand double doors into a dramatic vaulted foyer adorned with gleaming marble floors and bathed in natural light. To your right, a beautifully appointed office with newly refinished hardwood floors offers the perfect work from home space, while to the left, a spacious formal dining room features a stunning tray ceiling and rich hardwoods, ideal for hosting elegant dinner parties. The heart of the home lies in the expansive great room, where soaring two-story ceilings, hardwood floors, and a striking electric fireplace with stacked stone surround create a warm, inviting ambiance. Glass doors lead out to a composite deck that overlooks the home's backyard paradise, an entertainer’s dream. The chef’s kitchen is truly a showstopper, boasting a massive island with waterfall-edge quartz countertops, a Viking six-burner range, wall oven, Viking refrigerator, wine fridge, and a spacious breakfast nook. A walk-through butler’s pantry with custom cabinetry and matching quartz countertops connects the kitchen to the formal dining space, offering both style and function. The first floor primary suite is a true retreat, featuring tray ceilings, hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and private access to the rear deck. Two custom walk-in closets provide ample space, and the spa-like en suite bath stuns with a double vanity, soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, a separate steam shower, and a dedicated makeup vanity, a personal oasis designed for relaxation. The main level also features 10-foot ceilings throughout and a stylish half bath for guests. Ascend the illuminated staircase to find 4 generously sized bedrooms and 3 full baths. Two of the bedrooms offer en suite bathrooms, while the remaining two share a beautifully designed hall bath. Each bedroom is tastefully finished with updated flooring, recessed lighting, and thoughtful details. For movie lovers, the second floor also includes a dedicated theater room, perfect for cozy film nights or entertaining guests in cinematic style. The lower level is its own private sanctuary, boasting 9-foot ceilings, recessed lighting, and walkout access to the stunning backyard. This space includes a full eat-in kitchen with quartz countertops, an electric fireplace in the secondary living area, and a large laundry room with abundant cabinetry, counter space, and a utility sink.
