The Floor Plans:

Entry and Foyer

The double wooden doors open to a dramatic foyer. Right away, the sweeping curved staircase catches your eye, and the openness created by the balcony above makes the entry feel grand.

A gallery wall with built-in bookshelves sets a cultured tone. This isn’t just a passage—it’s a space that welcomes you with style.

The foyer flows easily into the main living areas, letting you see glimpses of the great room and formal dining, while still feeling inviting and not at all overwhelming.

Library

To the left of the foyer, you’ll discover the library. This room feels intimate and peaceful, with tall windows that fill the space with natural light.

It works beautifully for reading, working from home, or simply finding a quiet place to think.

Because it’s set apart from the main activity zones, you’ll enjoy real privacy here. I think its location near the entry makes it great for meeting with clients or guests without disrupting the rest of the household.

Dining

Straight ahead is the formal dining room, just across from the foyer. Large windows keep the space bright and open, while its position between the kitchen and foyer makes entertaining simple.

There’s plenty of room for a large table, so holiday dinners or special gatherings are easy to host.

The room opens to the adjacent gallery, letting conversation flow easily, yet still feels like its own defined space.

Great Room

As you move into the great room, the impressive scale stands out. High ceilings and tall windows fill the area with light.

Built-in bookshelves along the walls offer space for your favorite art or family photos. The great room connects to the gallery and leads naturally to the master suite and morning room, so the space always feels open and central.

This is where everyone gathers, whether you’re enjoying a rainy afternoon together or celebrating with friends.

I love how this room feels both welcoming and impressive.

Gallery

The gallery runs next to the great room and acts as more than just a hallway.

With views into the great room and access to both the main suite and kitchen area, it connects all the main spaces.

You can easily move toward the master suite, morning room, or kitchen, all without feeling like you’re simply walking down a corridor.

Master Suite

At the far end of the gallery, the master suite offers a true sense of retreat.

The bedroom is spacious, with a bay window that leads out to its own private deck overlooking the backyard.

Built-in bookshelves add warmth and character. The suite features two walk-in closets—one for each partner—so storage is never a problem.

The master bath feels luxurious, with double vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower.

You also have direct access to the outdoor living area. I really like how the master suite feels tucked away for privacy, yet still connected to the main living spaces.

Outdoor Living

Step outside from the master suite to find the outdoor living area designed for relaxation and easy entertaining.

There’s a pond and even an outdoor shower here. You’ll have space for lounge seating and a dining set, with landscaping that brings a sense of peace and privacy.

It’s easy to imagine spending summer evenings out here, unwinding as the day ends.

Kitchen

Back inside, the kitchen sits between the great room and family room. There’s plenty of counter space, modern appliances, and a large central island that doubles as a work area and gathering spot.

The kitchen connects directly to the pantry, keeping everything organized and at your fingertips. I appreciate how the design keeps the kitchen open but still provides a bit of separation from the great room, so cooking smells don’t travel everywhere, and the cook still feels part of the action.

Pantry

Right next to the kitchen, the pantry offers generous shelving for groceries, small appliances, and all your baking needs. A window adds natural light, so you won’t be searching through a dark closet.

Family Room

Walk past the kitchen and you’ll find the family room. This is the casual living area, perfect for movie nights or game days.

Windows on three sides keep it sunny and inviting, and a door leads directly to the larger backyard deck.

The layout invites you to sit back, relax, and enjoy views of the garden or yard.

Morning Room

Next to the family room is the morning room, named for its curved wall of windows that flood the space with daylight.

It’s a wonderful spot for breakfast or a quiet coffee break. The morning room is cheerful and close to the kitchen, yet still feels like a special corner of its own.

Decks

From the main floor, you can access two decks: a smaller deck off the master suite and a larger deck just outside the family room.

Both provide space for outdoor dining, grilling, or simply enjoying the sun. I love how the decks feel like natural extensions of the family spaces, so indoor and outdoor living blend together effortlessly.

Hall, Laundry, and Secondary Entry

Heading toward the garage, a practical hall holds the laundry area, a mudroom with coat closets, and access to the porch and three-car garage.

This part of the house is all about daily convenience—making room for backpacks, shoes, and laundry out of sight.

A secondary staircase here connects to both the upper and lower levels, which really streamlines family routines.

Powder Room

A convenient powder room sits just off the hall near the laundry. It’s perfectly placed for guests or anyone coming in from the garage or outside.

With its location away from the main living spaces, everyone enjoys a bit more privacy.

Three-Car Garage

The three-car garage is attached to the main level and has space for vehicles, bikes, and storage. A direct entrance leads into the mudroom and laundry area, so you can bring in groceries and gear with ease.

Let’s head upstairs and see how the private quarters and bonus spaces are arranged.

Upper Hall and Balcony

Upstairs, a curved landing overlooks both the foyer and great room below, creating a sense of openness.

Windows and railings make the whole space feel connected. The upper hall leads to bedrooms and bonus rooms, with each area feeling distinct.

Bedroom 2

The first bedroom upstairs is spacious and located at the front of the house. Large windows make it bright all day, and a walk-in closet provides plenty of storage.

The hallway outside gives easy access to a shared bathroom and the upper landing.

Bedroom 3

A bit further down the hall, bedroom three is slightly smaller but still comfortable. It features its own closet and is close to the shared bath.

This room works well for kids, guests, or even as an office if you want some flexibility.

Shared Bathrooms

The upper level has two conveniently located bathrooms. These bathrooms are easy to reach from all three bedrooms and have multiple sinks, making busy mornings a breeze.

There’s even a separate vanity area outside one bathroom, which is especially handy for families with teens.

Bedroom 4

Bedroom four is at the back of the house and is slightly larger than bedroom three.

Oversized windows bring in afternoon light, and there’s a walk-in closet for storage. Because this room is set apart from the others, it’s ideal for a teenager or someone who wants more privacy.

Media Room

One of the highlights upstairs is a spacious media room, ready for use as a home theater, playroom, or second family lounge. Double doors allow you to keep it quiet when you need, and there’s plenty of wall space for a big screen or shelves for games and books.

Balcony

A balcony at the back of the upper level looks out over the yard and decks below.

You can access it from the media room, and it’s a great spot for fresh air or birdwatching.

I think this would make a perfect place to set up a small bistro table and chairs.

Storage

At the end of the upper hall, a sizable storage room gives you space for off-season décor, luggage, or anything you’d rather keep out of sight. Dedicated storage is such a relief because it means your bedroom closets stay clear.

Attic Spaces

Multiple attic spaces run along the outer edges of the upper floor. These unfinished areas are perfect for long-term storage, holiday decorations, or perhaps even expansion down the road.

You’ll always have a spot for those things you only use once in a while.

Ready to see how the lower level expands your options for entertaining and everyday living?

Lower Level Foyer

The staircase from the main hall leads down to the lower level foyer. There’s a coat closet nearby, so guests can get comfortable right away.

From here, you can move into the main recreation spaces or head toward storage and utility rooms.

Recreation Room

The recreation room grabs your attention with its impressive size. With direct access to the covered patio, it’s perfect for large groups or family movie nights.

There’s space for a pool table, ping-pong, or just relaxing with friends. This is a versatile, open space that adapts to whatever you need.

Media Room

Connected to the recreation area, the media room offers a focused spot for watching movies or gaming. Double doors let you close it off for a true theater feel, adding privacy and sound control.

Wet Bar

Hosting is easy with the wet bar just off the recreation room. There’s a built-in counter and room for a mini fridge, sink, and glassware.

It’s perfect for parties or just mixing up drinks on game night.

Wine Cellar

Next to the wet bar, the dedicated wine room will excite any wine lover. There’s space for an impressive collection, and the location makes it easy to grab a bottle for dinner or share a tasting with friends.

Gym

On the opposite side of the foyer, you’ll find the home gym. It’s spacious and bright, with room for a full suite of equipment.

There’s a bathroom nearby, so you don’t have to head upstairs during your workout. If keeping wellness top of mind is important to you, this space makes it simple.

Covered Patios

Step out from the recreation area to find two covered patios designed for outdoor living, no matter the weather.

You can grill, relax after a workout, or host a summer get-together. Because there’s direct access from the main rooms, moving between indoors and outdoors is smooth and easy.

Storage, Mechanical, and Garage Slab

The lower level also includes ample storage, a dedicated mechanical room, and access to the garage slab. These practical spaces may not be flashy, but they make all the difference in keeping the house organized and clutter-free.

After touring this home, I think it’s clear how every level and room works together to create a place that’s elegant, functional, and ready to adapt to your lifestyle. If you want both lively spaces for gathering and peaceful retreats for downtime, this house truly delivers on every front.
