The newly added mudroom enhances daily living with both beauty and function. At the heart of the home is the chef-inspired kitchen crafted for those who value both elegance and performance. Quartz countertops, a massive 9-foot island, custom cabinetry, and a full-height backsplash with integrated lighting create a sophisticated, showstopping centerpiece. A custom 48” hood and top-tier ZLINE appliances, including a 7-burner double oven, make hosting effortless. Ten-foot accordion doors expand the entire space into the backyard for true indoor-outdoor living. A versatile fourth bedroom with double glass shaker doors and a full closet offers a perfect flex space for an office, studio, guest room, or den. The primary suite is a serene retreat with a custom-built closet system and direct sliding-door access to the backyard. The spa-worthy ensuite bathroom elevates the everyday with a double vanity, Quartz counters, champagne bronze Delta fixtures, and an oversized walk-in waterfall shower wrapped in floor-to-ceiling tile with a pony wall and built-in bench. Secondary bedrooms are spacious and warm, while the guest bath features a chic herringbone accent wall and a custom glass sliding shower/tub combo with matching designer finishes. Outside, the expansive .23-acre lot offers endless opportunitycomplete with a patio, Alumawood pergola, new landscaping, and storage shed creating the perfect setting for gatherings, play, or quiet evenings under the stars. The garage is fully finished with fresh paint, recessed lighting, and a pristine epoxy-coated floor ideal for a workshop, gym, storage, or simply a polished extension of your living space. Additional upgrades include all-new LVP flooring throughout, new tile in bathrooms, modern baseboards, new interior and exterior doors, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, exterior/interior paint, and a new water heater all reflecting the home’s complete transformation.
