A special feature is the spacious bonus room over the double garage, which could provide a children’s play area, a studio or a noise-proof room for band practice. Entry is through a compact foyer, with a coat closet to the left and a triangular display area for collectibles. Directly ahead is the great room, where sloping ceilings add a touch of drama. The corner fireplace will attract visitors and family members alike during the cooler months. Large windows look out to a sundeck. The great room, dining room and kitchen flow seamlessly into one another. The dining room boasts french doors that open on to a covered deck that adjoins the sundeck as well as an optional built-out buffet. The kitchen is separated from the other rooms by a six-sided eating bar and prep island. The cooktop is set into this island, so guests and family can chat with the cook during meal preparation. The window over the double sink features an extra-deep sill for plants and collectibles, and there’s a spacious walk-in pantry. A door from the kitchen goes to the laundry room, which contains a closet, and gives access to the double garage. The master suite, located at the back of the home for privacy, includes an ensuite with a soaker tub, located in a bayed-out area with a window. There is also a corner shower stall. The walk-in closet will provide ample room for even the most fashion-conscious couple’s clothing. The second and third bedrooms are separated from the master suite by a three-piece bathroom and a linen closet. The two bedrooms are relatively equal in size, but one features french doors to the front veranda. The home’s exterior is finished in horizontal siding, with contesting vertical siding in the gables. Painted wooden columns with stone bases lend a classical aura.
