The updates included Marvin Windows, Kitchen, bathrooms, roof in addition to geothermal heating and cooling plus solar for total energy efficiency! Sought after open floor plan is accentuated with big windows, skylights, a huge crab orchard stone fireplace and Vermont slate in the main part of the 1st floor. Enjoy the open kitchen layout with island seating. The kitchen flows into the breakfast room with additional cabinetry and patio door for easy access to the BBQ. Large Laundry/Utility room off this space for total convenience. The first floor also features an extra large family room and full bath, which if needed could be used as a first-floor bedroom. The top-floor primary bedroom addition has a walk-in closet, en suite bath, and an office with treetop views. Off the main floor up 4 stairs find three more bedrooms, which include a second primary bedroom with an en suite bath plus a full hall bath, with artful tile. Head downstairs to the partially finished, dugout basement, which awaits your creative ideas. Stubbed for an extra bath this space could be an additional family room, game room, bedroom or two, 2nd home office, or gym. This huge space has ample large windows and ceiling height.
