The living room features vaulted ceilings, a fireplace with custom mantel, extensive built-ins and a large picture window framing the gardens. A broad arched opening leads to the spacious formal dining room with vaulted ceilings, custom cabinetry and a bay window with cushioned seat. Adjacent, a butler's pantry/bar with abundant storage and built-in beverage refrigerator transitions naturally to the kitchen. Designed for cooking and gathering, the kitchen features extensive cabinetry and counter space, a large center island, two sinks, gas cooktop, double ovens, built-in workspace and two sets of French doors to the gardens. It opens to a fireside casual dining area with wet bar and French doors outside, followed by a light-filled family room with vaulted ceilings, extensive built-ins, window seat and garden views. Near the kitchen, an en suite bedroom with full bath, built-in desk and exterior access offers wonderful flexibility. A dedicated laundry room and separate exterior bonus room provide additional options for an office, gym or creative space. The bedroom wing includes two secondary bedrooms, one with an en suite bath, plus a full hall bath. The spacious primary suite features dual walk-in closets with extensive built-in organization, vaulted ceilings, fireplace and French doors to the garden.
