Welcome to this spacious Countryside home, where generous living spaces, thoughtful architectural details, and timeless finishes come together in an inviting setting. Enter through the front door with decorative leaded-glass sidelights into the dramatic 2-story foyer, highlighted by Italian marble flooring, a striking glass chandelier, open oak staircase, and deep coat closet. The formal dining room makes an elegant impression with custom millwork, including crown molding, chair rail, and wainscoting. The bright, impressive living room features a soaring 14-foot vaulted ceiling and a floor-to-ceiling, dual-sided brick fireplace with oak mantle and gas logs, beautifully flanked by French doors opening to the family room. The family room showcases the other side of the fireplace, recessed lighting, and an open connection to the kitchen and eating area, creating a comfortable and seamless space for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features ceramic tile flooring and backsplash, oak cabinetry, butcher block center island, bay window over the sink, and pantry closet. Stainless steel appliances include a new Whirlpool dishwasher, JennAir electric cooktop with downdraft vent, double-door refrigerator, built-in microwave, and wall oven. The adjacent eating area features another bay window and convenient access to the back deck. A bright sunroom adds even more living space with slate flooring, skylight, and French door to the deck. The oversized laundry room offers abundant storage with oak cabinetry and closet, plus access to the 2.5-car side-load garage. A convenient powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is a true retreat with double-door entry, vaulted ceiling with fan, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with dual wood mantles and gas logs. The suite also offers a walk-in closet, linen closet, and luxurious en-suite bath. The spa-like bath features slate flooring, ceramic tile walk-in shower with glass doors and rainfall showerhead, Jacuzzi jetted tub, dual vanity, skylight, and octagonal window.

The finished basement significantly expands the home's living and entertaining options with a game/media room, recreation room, and wet bar complete with oak cabinetry, sink, U-Line mini-fridge, and GE built-in microwave. A fifth bedroom with two closets and double-door entry provides excellent flexibility for guests, hobbies, or additional living or office space.
