Enjoy seamless indoor-outdoor living with a large, covered patio featuring a gas fire pit, outdoor kitchen, and plenty of space for hanging out, all overlooking a private, fully fenced backyard offering ample opportunity for a custom swimming pool. The basement rounds out this beautifully designed home with a 5th bedroom, 4th full bathroom, exercise room, media room with dry bar, and a flexible office area, along with ample mechanical/storage space. Designed by Architect Lori Bork Newcomer and built by J.W. York Homes, you'll be pleased with the details at every turn of this exceptional home.
