The main level offers a luxurious primary suite and a private guest suite, alongside a formal dining room, elegant bar, and a showpiece kitchen that spills effortlessly into the grand living room and outdoor entertaining spaces. A scullery, mudroom, and fully tiled laundry with a dog bath add convenience. Front and back staircases connect the home’s multiple living areas and create the perfect flow. Upstairs, you’ll find two guest suites with private baths, two additional bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bath, plus a craft room, spacious media lounge overlooking the pool, and abundant storage.
