The luxurious primary suite offers a private escape with an oversized walk-in closet and a spa-like shower and grand soaking tub. For supreme comfort, all bathrooms feature heated floors. The home's greatest extension is the expansive screened-in patio, which acts as a second living room complete with its own stone fireplace, a built-in grilling station, and dining area. This outdoor sanctuary directly overlooks the level, fenced-in yard, confirming that the usable acreage is a natural, effortless extension of the living space. The attached three-car garage goes beyond the standard, offering impressive storage.
