A private office on the first floor with built-in bookcases and closet could be easily converted to a 5th bedroom if desired with a convenient full bathroom adjacent. Off of the 3-car garage, you will discover an incredible mudroom and laundry room with custom built-in cabinetry and storage. Upstairs, the second floor hosts four bedrooms and three beautifully updated bathrooms, highlighted by the grand primary bedroom featuring a vaulted ceiling, a stunning walk-in closet, and a gorgeous new primary bathroom. The fully finished lower level is appointed with a large recreation area, an exercise room, a fifth bedroom, a half bathroom, and ample storage space.
