This quality built all brick home has been meticulously loved and cared for by the current owners. Nestled on a quiet cul de sac in a private, yet extremely convenient location and featuring 9 ft ceilings on the 1st floor and a great floor plan for everyday living. The gracious two story foyer with open staircase welcomes you in to this elegant home with over 5200 sq ft of light and bright living space. The foyer is flanked by the dining room perfect for entertaining and living room with gas fireplace w/marble surround and plenty of space for a grand piano. The updated kitchen includes a large center island, abundant cabinetry and Wolf, Bosch and SubZero appliances. The huge sunlit eating area provides 180 degree views of the beautiful yard with mature trees and plantings and new stone patio. Just off the kitchen is the dramatic two story family room with floor to ceiling brick fireplace and two sets of sliding doors out to the patio. An adjacent sunroom is a special treat, offering an additional space to relax and unwind. A large study, updated powder room, laundry room and office or 6th bedroom complete the 1st level. As you venture to the 2nd floor you are greeted by the hallway bathed in natural light and looking down to the family room below. Just down the hall is the large primary suite with vaulted ceiling and gas fireplace w/marble surround. The primary bath has been recently updated and features dual sinks with quartzite countertops and separate vanities, soaking tub and separate shower. Three additional bedrooms, one that is en-suite and two that share a recently updated bath complete the 2nd level. The lower level was designed for fun with large rec room with bar/kitchenette area and nice wine closet, separate game room area, 5th bedroom and full bath. There are also two large storage areas, one with work bench. Beautifully landscaped yard and a 3 car garage all in a fabulous location, close to train and shopping!
