Just off this room, the main-floor primary bedroom includes excellent built-in storage and double doors opening directly to the hot tub. Tucked behind a hidden door in the dining room is a secret staircase leading to a private fourth bedroom with custom built-ins-a truly unique guest retreat. Past the dining room, the main front door reveals a central hall. To the right is an expansive living room spanning the depth of the house, featuring impressive ceilings, large windows, and a beautiful stone fireplace.The main staircase leads to a massive second bedroom with integrated cabinetry, a brick fireplace, and a stargazing skylight.
