The sprawling main level flows effortlessly into a rare open-concept kitchen and family room, creating the perfect setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The home's versatile layout is ideal for multigenerational living. The third floor serves as a private retreat with its own sitting areas, bedroom and full bath. On the second level, the primary suite features a massive en-suite bath with Jack-and-Jill access to an adjacent room, perfect for a nursery, home office or future walk-in closet. Much of the heavy lifting has already been completed. Major updates include a brand-new forced-air heating system, central air conditioning, beautifully renovated bathrooms and an updated kitchen.
