All bathrooms have been updated within the past decade, including the main-floor primary suite, which features a walk-in closet and private en suite bath. The beautifully updated kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring granite countertops, a Jenn-Air range, stainless steel appliances, and a convenient wet bar-perfect for coffee or cocktails. Two separate dining areas and an attached main-floor laundry room with abundant storage add to the home’s functionality. Just off the kitchen, a spacious enclosed porch offers a serene setting to unwind with a glass of tea. Multiple living spaces provide flexibility and warmth, anchored by three stunning, ornate fireplaces-perfect for cozy evenings. Upstairs, you’ll discover a charming library nook and a sun-filled bonus room, ideal as a home office, studio, or retreat.
