Luxurious primary suite has a marble bath & dressing room. Two more bedrooms and a sitting room are on the 2nd floor, with another bath. The 3rd floor has two bedrooms (one as a rec room), a bath, and ample storage. Enjoy a dry, lower-level gym, wine room, and laundry center. Central air, 3 fireplaces, hardwood floors, and all the upgrades. Warm and welcoming, not pretentious. A 2-car stone garage with storage completes the package. This house will make your life better!
