Just beyond, elegant living and dining areas provide an inviting backdrop for everything from casual gatherings to holiday entertaining.Upstairs, the expansive primary suite feels like a private retreat, complete with two closets and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower and double vanity. A second bedroom and additional full bath on this floor provide welcome versatility. Two sun-filled third-floor bedrooms with cathedral ceilings, along with a charming home office, create additional options for guests, working from home or creative pursuits.The finished walk-out lower level adds even greater flexibility with a bedroom, full bath, family room, wet bar and direct access to the new composite deck and garden—well suited for extended stays, guests, in-law use or potential future ADU conversion, subject to buyer due diligence and required approvals.Major improvements include new heating and central air, updated electrical and plumbing, gas tankless hot water, new insulation, Marvin window upgrades and a newer roof.
