The primary suite offers dual closets, ridge-top views and a spa-inspired bath. Outdoor living truly shines with a screened patio, fireplace lounge, sunset-facing dining porch, fire pit, and multiple decks. An oversized, finished two-car garage includes EV-ready power, plus approximately 780 heated and cooled square feet above—ideal for a studio, office, fitness space or guest overflow. A $16,000 mahogany entry door, keyless access, luxury laundry and a $75,000 landscape package complete this exceptionally thoughtful home.
