Open concept kitchen with solid oak cabinets and island enjoys views to the front yard with access to solarium from all bedrooms. This is a comfortable yet compact design with an open great room, solarium with hot tub, three bedrooms and two full baths, plus, a fourth loft bedroom/studio that serves as a perfect guest space or studio space with full sink and views to the gardens and...Oh yes! Did we mention that there's an INGROUND POOL?. Primary bedroom is on the main level with en suite bath. This is a perfect setup for single floor living with second and third floor guest area/office/studio space. Third floor has functioned as an artist's studio with sink that looks out to pool area. You will love that there is ample storage throughout this home. The nearly full basement and an attached oversized two car garage speak of the care that is evident in the construction and practicality. Solar panels are owned and reduce electric bills significantly. You'll also be pleased to be able to grow your own food in the fenced raised bed garden. There is an irrigation system to the fenced blueberry enclosure at the north end. An ongoing pollinator meadow project welcomes native flora and fauna alike. Buy now and be sitting poolside by Summer!
