The kitchen impresses with custom modern shaker cabinetry, quartz counters, a backsplash reminiscent of flowing water, stainless steel appliances & a generous center island. Just off the kitchen, down a couple of steps, you notice the garage is currently being used as a clever bonus room for a soothing retreat. Heading for the backyard, you first pass a convenient office space before exiting the French doors. Outside you find an extensive covered patio blessed with a full outdoor kitchen, custom bench seating & a pristine pool with built-in spa. Back inside, it's clear all the bedrooms are sizable, however the primary suite is simply immense & flaunts a custom walk-in closet to boot! Both bathrooms have been meticulously remodeled in a modern fashion, one with a floating vanity, the other dramatic decorative tile accents, but both making use of frameless glass shower doors and sleek tile flooring.
