Access the beautifully landscaped side yard from either deck and play corn hole or have a fire in the stacked stone firepit. Enjoy a peaceful nature walk on the private hiking trail that features locust handrails and flagstone steps that you can easily access from the side yard or driveway. The trail goes through the woods across the back of the 2-acre property where you can stop and enjoy stunning views from the seating area in the middle of the trail.

The large accommodating kitchen was designed to bring out your inner chef. Featuring a 48” gas range with double ovens, double commercial refrigerator/freezer, beverage/wine fridge and over-sized kitchen island. Cleaning up is a quick and easy, with two sets of dishwashers.

For entertaining, head to the lower-level game room that features an elite 8.5-foot pool table, poker table (with poker chips, cards, and auto shuffler), and a Dutch shuffleboard game called Sjoelbak.
