The sunny breakfast area opens directly to the patio and expansive backyard, creating the perfect setup for summer cookouts, outdoor games, and entertaining under the stars. The soaring two-story family room is filled with natural light and anchored by a cozy gas-start, wood-burning fireplace with an impressive granite surround and sound system with receiver. A private first-floor office with double doors provides an ideal work-from-home space or study retreat. Two separate stairways provide added flexibility, a thoughtful touch for busy families! The primary suite offers a true escape with an oversized walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, a jetted tub, and a beautifully tiled glass-enclosed shower. Bedroom 2 features its own full bath en-suite and walk in closet. The additional bedrooms provide generous closet space and room to grow and personalize! A versatile loft overlooking the family room is the ultimate flex space for gaming, homework, reading, or an additional media area.
