A center hall colonial, with the living room and dining room flanking the foyer, this home reveals unique and custom elements as you make your way through the main level. The eat-in kitchen features a beautiful stone wall with a gas fireplace and live-edge wood mantel. The vaulted ceilings and skylights highlight this exceptional space.

The expansive yard has been professionally landscaped with tiers of perennials, a pond and waterfall and multiple seating areas, including a gas firepit. A piped natural gas grille is conveniently situated on the paver patio for ease and convenience. The large yard still reserves plenty of open, green space for play and gardening. A well on the property provides water for irrigation, landscaping and the waterfall and pond. The outside is truly an extension to the living space of this quality home and can also be accessed by the main level laundry room and the magnificent family room and sunroom.
