Pocket doors open to a formal dining room featuring a built-in hutch lining one wall and built-in China cabinet lining the other, all accented by a cozy fireplace and light-filled windows. Direct access to a flex room with closet that could function as a downstairs bedroom or study, and on the left side, connects to the laundry room, and a swinging door leads to a chef's kitchen with marble counters, abundant storage, and a breakfast bar. Opens to a family room with marble fireplace and dual-paned slider that opens to a spacious backyard and huge pool with spa, grotto, and 2 waterfalls ready to host all of your summer gatherings.
