The 6-car (32x68) insulated garage includes in-floor zoned heating, separated workshop with high ceilings, & a connected indoor/outdoor dog kennel - ideal for hobbyists & perfect for additional storage.

The property is even equipped with a perimeter underground dog fence - ideal for pet owners looking to give their dogs safe outdoor access. From the wrap-around deck, a covered entry leads into the 4-season porch - so large you could use it as a practical drop zone and a sunny sitting area! Stepping into the grand open-concept living area, you'll notice soaring 22-foot high ceilings showcasing a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace and double patio doors leading to deck. Expansive windows allow natural light to filter throughout. The kitchen is a standout with a long breakfast bar, antique-looking Heartland 6-burner gas range, charming wine nook with fridge, and a hidden butler's pantry with a pocket door - perfect for storage & entertaining. The main floor also features a primary bedroom with a nearby bath. Leading up to the loft you'll find it full of possibilities - extra bedroom space, crafting, or a quiet home office. And don't miss the rustic-chic bathroom with a whirlpool tub that brings spa vibes to this unique space. The finished walk-out lower level features ceramic tile & newer Lifeproof vinyl plank flooring and includes two spacious bedrooms, each with a double closet, a large family room and two large hall closets - so much storage!
