The adjoining breakfast room boasts a cathedral ceiling with exposed beam and a cozy wood-burning stove. A separate prep area adds exceptional functionality with an additional oven-range, double sink, refrigerator, and stackable washer and dryer. Two powder rooms complete the main level. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a 1,600-square-foot wraparound deck and patio overlooking manicured grounds framed by mature landscaping. An ideal setting for entertaining or relaxation.
