The home offers a gourmet kitchen with marble counters, an oversized center island with seating, wet bar and high-end Wolf appliances. This opens to a sunny breakfast nook and formal dining on one side and the family room on the other. You'll find a formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace on the other end of the home. Both living and family rooms lead out to a covered porch and bluestone patio with views of Shelburne Pond. Upstairs the owner's suite offers a luxurious 5-piece bathroom with dressing room. Guests enjoy spacious rooms all with private baths. You'll also find an office and laundry room on the 2nd floor. The finished walkout lower level offers two rec rooms and a private guest suite.
