The main-level primary suite opens to a private deck and features a spa-inspired shower with dual rain showers, body jets, and a Toto Bidet Washlet. A gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, oversized island, gas range, and vintage bark cabinetry flows seamlessly into the grand family room with its stone fireplace and timber mantel. Upstairs, a guest ensuite, vaulted bonus room with balcony, loft sitting area, and a hidden cupola retreat create inviting spaces for family and friends.
