The spacious dining room is designed for making memories, whether sharing a leisurely meal with friends or gathering around the table for game night. Adjacent, the thoughtfully planned kitchen offers custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and a convenient planning desk that serves as the household command center. A doorway leads to the wonderful shaded deck, extending the living space outdoors—ideal for morning coffee, getting lost in a good book, or dining alfresco. Beyond, beautifully manicured gardens create a lush and tranquil backdrop. The flexible floor plan offers a wonderful main-level suite featuring charming built-ins, vaulted ceiling, an expansive window overlooking the gardens, and a private atrium door leading directly to the deck. This versatile space could also serve beautifully as a den, family room, or home office, depending on your lifestyle.
