Built in 1986 and meticulously maintained, the focal point of its lush outdoor setting is a beautifully designed deck and pool area with a well-appointed pool house, complete with kitchen, bath, changing rooms and basement. Upon entering, the living room is distinguished by a beamed ceiling and multiple sliding glass doors that flood the space with light and invite seamless indoor-outdoor living. An adjoining sunroom offers a tranquil space to take it all in and the formal dining room brings everyone together. Throughout, the layout has been thoughtfully designed, with a library, a first-floor bedroom, and a full bath in their own wing. A cozy den off the kitchen is another intimate space, while the kitchen itself is a chef's delight featuring dual full-size Sub-Zeros, center island, breakfast seating, and an abundance of storage, including an adjoining walk-in pantry. Up a back staircase, a media room and three bedrooms are laid out to give the main suite privacy. With a large terrace overlooking the pool area, expansive closet storage, and a spa-like bathroom, homeowners are assured the ultimate in relaxation. A finished lower level provides ample space for games, hobbies, and a home gym. Glorious attention to detail extends throughout, with designer touches at every turn.
