All has been professionally landscaped with custom moonlighting and up lighting making it look beautiful night and day. Underground sprinkler system keeps all this looking its best. Year round you are surrounded by nature's beauty, as it truly is a one of a kind private retreat within city limits! Beautiful architectural features abound inside. Solid wood doors and trim, oak floors, elegant cove ceilings, lovely palladian windows, and wainscoting with custom paint finishes all add to the charm. Grand covered portico entry. Inviting marble entry foyer with double French doors that open to an expansive, sun-drenched living room featuring a mantled gas fireplace and an adjoining main-level home office. Banquet size formal dining room with wood beam ceiling. If you love to entertain , this home is for you. Cook's delight! The remodeled gourmet kitchen has been thoughtfully expanded to include a large island with seating, a sunny breakfast room, and a truly spectacular first-floor family room with cathedral ceilings, a second gas fireplace and sun-filled windows that view the beautiful grounds! This kitchen is where beauty truly meets function! Ample cabinetry and drawers, all newer stainless appliances including two dishwashers, a built-in oven with a warming drawer, custom hood over the cooktop, two sinks (one with a purified water spigot), and a veggie sink in the island. A wonderful place to cook, relax or entertain! The added mudroom and new back entryway provide easy access to a covered patio with a BBQ, the garage, the yard, and in ground pool. Convenient first floor powder room. A gracious open stairway with a palladian window landing, leads to an elegant master suite with a spa-like bath featuring a Jacuzzi tub, separate shower and built-in storage cabinets. Nice-size second bedroom and full guest bath. The third and fourth bedrooms are tandem creating a lovely sitting area that views the yard.
