In total, the home provides 5 full baths and 1 half bath, thoughtfully distributed across all levels. Additional comforts include radiant in-floor heating, A/C on the main level, a 3rd floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace in the Great Room, and a generous main-level laundry room. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with multiple decks and a patio that capture the serene setting and scenic views. An oversized 2-car garage provides ample room for vehicles and gear.
