The gourmet kitchen is a cook's dream, featuring high-end stainless steel appliances, a large range with custom hood, warming drawer, farmhouse sink, soapstone countertops, and beautiful cabinetry. A built-in bench adds a cozy spot for family meals, while the adjacent mudroom with custom built-ins offers practical storage and direct access to the backyard, making everyday living a breeze. Between the kitchen and family room, you'll find a chic powder room and a built-in office work station, perfect for working from home or managing family schedules. Natural light pours into the family room, which boasts a vaulted, beamed ceiling, custom mantel, and French doors leading to a bluestone patio with a cozy outdoor fireplace- the ideal setting for year-round gatherings. Upstairs, the luxurious Primary Suite awaits, complete with vaulted ceilings, a private balcony, and its own fireplace. The spa-like ensuite bath offers heated floors, a soaking tub, a glass-enclosed shower, and dual vanities. Two additional bedrooms feature high ceilings and share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, while the fourth bedroom offers a private ensuite bath and a custom pass-through closet. The finished basement provides additional living space, with a recreation room, a fifth bedroom with a full bath, ample storage, and a large laundry room equipped with extra cabinetry and easy access to a convenient laundry shoot. The beautifully landscaped backyard is a private retreat, featuring a bluestone patio with a built-in fireplace, a gas line for grilling, and lush greenery and perennials. Whether hosting friends or enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, this space is perfect for every occasion.
