As you cross the threshold you would think this home is newly constructed. The current owners have upgraded all interior walls with a Ralph Lauren-inspired color palette that compliments the gleaming warm hardwood floors that run throughout the residence. Your entry foyer with high ceilings welcomes guests and is flanked by a formal dining room. The living room is anchored by a custom fireplace with hammered metal framing which is arched to mirror the custom mantle, with granite surround and hearth. HeatNGlo gas insert allows for instant ambiance and a supplementary heat source. Classic cabinetry frames the fireplace and is a perfect display space for collections and art. These rooms open to the gourmet kitchen where no detail was spared starting with the artfully crafted gas cooktop ventilation hood with convenience of mounted pot filling valve. Lovely granite counters are featured throughout the home in the kitchen and all baths. Spacious island offers quick breakfast seating for busy mornings but the convenience of a large breakfast room is also provided. Stainless appliances and furniture front on the dishwasher remain as part of the home. This central location will be where friends and family gather whether it be casual dining on the adjoining covered Trex porch, perched like a treehouse, where deer roam below, or more formal affairs in the classic dining room. The owner's suite accommodates oversized furnishing with space for a sitting area and the spa-inspired bath will be the zone where you destress, particularly in the vintage slipper tub. Need to be on the road quicker? The step-in tiled shower is your better option. Dual vanities with storage tower require no sharing of spaces a nice feature for an Oscar, (messy) or Felix (neat freak) partnership. Every person's dream is the adjoining closet with enough square footage for an ottoman, dresser - left only to your imagination or use of space. The laundry with sink, counter for folding clothes & cabinetry offers the added bonus of the washer and dryer which remain. On the opposite side of the home are 2 additional bedrooms with full bath, half bath, and generous pantry. The extended 2 car garage, plumbed for a second refrigerator with an oversized parking pad completes the main level. More? Of course, you would expect nothing less with this caliber of home. The terrace level offers a large family room, office, and private guest suite with full bath. This area could provide a secluded suite with a private entrance. Multiple doors take you out to the newly stone-paved patio, ideal for entertaining. Recently installed wrought iron fence allows pets freedom of movement outside. A craft room, mechanical room and unfinished areas offer a great shop or hobby space with wash sink and exterior ingress/egress. These areas are considered unfinished but are served by heat/air. The added value continues with a professionally landscaped exterior and irrigation system. Four zoned dual fuel hvac system allows for economy and comfort with controlled air, depending on the season. Screens for all the windows are stored in the basement. The home is wired for an alarm system and hi-tech streaming. Underground utilities and street lights are a benefit of living within the Laurel Place community. Why build when you can buy existing value for less. Come experience the craftsmanship of deep moldings and prideful workmanship.
