The chef's kitchen is equipped with granite countertops and sink, two pantries, Tiffany lighting, and gas double ovens, including a convection oven.

The spacious family room serves as the heart of the home, featuring a STONE FIREPLACE with a raised hearth, wood mantel, custom entertainment cabinetry, and a coffered ceiling. All bedrooms are generously sized with walk-in closets, while every bedroom enjoys direct access to a full bath. BAY WINDOWS add charm and character to the primary suite, office, and secondary bedroom.

Built with durability and long-term value in mind, notable features include Zip System sheathing, AdvanTech subfloors, a gas tankless water heater, LOW-MAINTENANCE EXTERIOR materials, and an oversized side-entry garage complete with utility sink and refrigerator water hookup.

The beautifully landscaped grounds include mature magnolias, crepe myrtles, roses, blackberry bushes, holly bushes, fresh landscaping, a FENCED BACKYARD, grilling patio, and a paver patio designed for relaxing and entertaining.
