Grand, beautifully proportioned rooms are designed for effortless entertainment, highlighted by a stately formal dining room worthy of the most important occasions. The expansive country kitchen is both functional and refined, featuring a professional-grade Wolf range with custom copper hood, an oversized Sub-Zero refrigerator, vintage tile flooring, and a striking chandelier that brings a touch of timeless elegance to space. A classic wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and character to the cozy wood paneled den with charming French doors opening to bayfront views. With six spacious bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and two additional half baths, this home offers exceptional comfort and ample space to accommodate family and guests with ease.
