With over 4,200 square feet, five bedrooms, and a gracious floor plan designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining, this home delivers exceptional space, quality, and lifestyle. A dramatic marble foyer sets an elegant tone, opening to expansive formal and casual living spaces filled with natural light. The soaring family room is a standout gathering space, featuring vaulted ceilings, multiple skylights, a woodburning fireplace with a striking custom marble mantle, and French doors that seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living. Formal living and dining rooms provide the perfect setting for celebrations and holiday gatherings, while a private study offers quiet space for working from home or pursuing personal interests. At the heart of the home, the thoughtfully designed kitchen combines beauty and functionality with custom cabinetry, extensive French-door pantry storage, granite countertops, a professional-grade 48-inch Signature Kitchen Suite gas range, and a Fisher & Paykel French door refrigerator. A generous square island anchors the space with ample prep and serving space, while the dramatic semi-circular breakfast bar with wraparound seating naturally becomes the gathering spot for casual meals, cocktails, and conversation. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a custom screened porch and expansive deck overlooking the property's serene, tree-lined setting. The spacious grounds offer privacy, room to play, and endless possibilities for enjoying the outdoors. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, complete with a sitting room, dual closets with customized California Closet build-ins, and a spa-like spacious bath featuring a new frameless shower door, expansive marble vanities, jacuzzi tub, separate make-up area, and private water closet. Four additional inviting bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or an additional recreation room/office space will impress everyone .
