There's also two stairways to the basement. The attached garage is a unique treat for the area. 2 car attached garage plus 2 car carport off the back. What a bonus! Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, along with a large tandem room that can serve as a playroom, homework space, or even an additional bedroom. The luxurious primary suite is your personal retreat, featuring an updated marble bathroom with dual vanity sinks, a walk-in shower, a private dressing room, two ample closets with custom shelving, and access to an expansive roof deck. The second full bathroom has also been beautifully updated, complete with a tub/shower combination. Need more space? The walk-up attic provides endless storage or the potential for future expansion. The basement is partially finished showcasing a nice sized Rec room with luxury vinyl wood flooring, and great ceiling height. The rest of the basement boasts epoxy floors, a wine cellar, laundry area, and loads of storage. This home is as practical as it is beautiful, with modern updates including wood replacement windows (installed by previous owners), upgraded electrical systems, copper plumbing and full home water filtration system.
