The heart of the home has a sunken living room featuring cypress-plank ceilings, a cozy wood-burning stove, surrounded by built-ins and large windows overlooking the expansive backyard. The entry to this retreat allows for natural light and direct access to the loft office area overlooking the entry. The kitchen is a bright, modern workspace with crisp white cabinetry, gas range. large pantry closet and leathered stone countertops that flow effortlessly into the open dining area. Designed for nature lovers, the home features three expansive wraparound porches (two upper, one lower) with five separate entry points, creating a seamless connection to the wooded landscape. The main-level primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, boasting dual walk-in closets, a private bath with double vanities, a garden tub, and direct porch access. The versatile lower level is a complete living hub, offering two guest bedrooms, a dedicated exercise/flex room, and a massive family room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. Looking for additional storage, there is a finished walk-in room that could easily transition into a secondary closet or hobby space.
