Upstairs, the second level continues to impress with a large, comfortable family room centered around a third wood-burning fireplace and soft carpet underfoot. The upper level boasts six spacious bedrooms, including three with their own en-suite baths. The primary suite is a serene retreat, offering a skylit sitting area with custom built-ins, dual walk-in closets, and expansive windows that frame tranquil views of the estate.
