The fee standing tub, large scale shower stall with multi body sprays and private commode area, just has been a delight to end your days in.
Master bedroom equipped with a custom-made closet system has been one of her dreams.
The second floor equipped with second floor HVAC system and a laundry closet in addition to their basement laundry room is making daily chores much simpler.
The Jack and Jill bathroom and guest bathroom with classic subway style tile and black and white mosaics flooring made these spaces timeless.
The entire home covered with wide plank dark mahogany wood flooring has complimented the white cabinetry and white quartz counter top.

New family room with covered stone fireplace made a big pop in main level transformation, a butler area with wine fridge and glass cabinets is an added bonus,just to left of the front foyer is open dining room with wainscoting and double French door leading to their home office.(Much needed space during this pandemic made this couple more grateful than even to have this spaceaway from kids and home chaos.
The front elevation is to die for. The new added front porch with wide stone covered steps and porch covered with dark metal roof and wide square pillars. A 10 feet wide custom glass front door with denim blue Hardie plank siding, black windows and white trim made this home to stand among all homes in this neighborhood.
The basement was totally revamped with new mudroom area from garage, converting old garage to a guest bedroom with adding a e-grass window and a basement bathroom, an open floor plan gaming area for two youngsters. A bar area with dark blue cabinetry, white marble and complimentary black floor tiles given them a cozy yet comfortable guest quarter.
