Castle-Like Exterior
Built 25 years ago on a quiet, tree-lined street, this three-story house offers light-filled interiors, quality craftsmanship, and an open-concept layout on the main floor. There’s also no shortage of curbside appeal with a brick-and-stone facade and castle-like turret.

Quality Craftsmanship
The architect designed the first-floor rooms to connect to one another through arched entrances and hardwood floors that flow throughout the space. Though the rooms are connected, each one looks and feels unique: The library is wrapped in wood on the ceiling, walls, and built-in bookshelves. The large kitchen, with panel appliances, opens to a dining area. Just beyond, a stone fireplace in the family room creates an easy place to gather for both friends and family. The main level also features the primary suite designed with a coffered ceiling, large walk-in closet, and access to the backyard. At the top of the spiral staircase there is an open flex space for families to make it their own. This, plus the addition of two bedrooms, each with their own walk-in closets and private bathrooms, complete the second floor.
Recreation Ready
In the downstairs basement there is plenty of room for entertaining with a large bar, an impressive 1,500-bottle wine cellar, thoughtfully designed for both storage and display, and a concrete room ideal for basketball lovers. Doors open to the backyard, where an upper and lower patio offer even more space for entertaining.
