A stunning family room addition brings the wow factor with vaulted ceilings, oversized windows, and exposed stonework that adds warmth and texture. Natural light fills the space while skylights invite the outdoors in. The kitchen is a showstopper with custom cabinetry, quartz counters, a farmhouse sink, and updated lighting. It’s open enough to entertain yet private enough to enjoy a quiet morning coffee. A stone sunporch with floor-to-ceiling windows runs along the front of the home—perfect for relaxing all year round with peaceful views of the wooded landscape. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms share a sleek, updated bathroom. Every detail has been curated to blend modern comfort with original charm—wood floors, stone accents, and unique architectural touches set this home apart.
