Off the primary bedroom, a private screened/windowed sunroom frames tranquil sound views, just steps away, a two-person hot tub invites sunset soaks. Outdoor living shines on the spacious deck, ideal for dining and taking in nightly color-washed sunsets. An exterior cargo lift provides convenient access to all levels, as well as the safety of a certified ''Fortified'' roof placed in 2020, and a whole-house generator offers year-round peace of mind. The lower level includes rear entry garage parking, and a finished multiple purpose area with over 1300 square feet-an excellent workshop, fitness room, or classic ''man cave.''
