Tucked next to kitchen is a powder room w/stained glass window, pedestal sink and exits to the pool area. There are 5 generous BRs and 4.5 Bths. The 2nd level has 3 BR and 2 Bths. The primary BR offers custom cabinetry, accent lighting, a ceiling fan/light and 3 exposures.

The rear grounds are sensational and are accessed seamlessly through 4 points of egress: from the garden room, through the LR French doors, from the powder room (a convenience for those pool parties) and from the kitchen. The rear grounds showcase expansive flagstone, mature plantings and raised garden beds, a lily pond with fountain, a 30 X 19 foot heated in-ground pool, strategic outdoor illumination and an al fresco dining area off the kitchen w/built-in storage cabinetry. The rear grounds are fully fenced, serene and private. This property has been very well maintained over the years given the owners penchant for detail and a consequent series of service/maintenance contracts in place. Thoughtful improvements include replacement of all windows with Pella energy efficient windows, an irrigation system to feed the lush landscaping, deck and pergola replacement to compliment outdoor activities, electrical upgrades, and outdoor lighting to name a few. (See improvement synopsis at property). The location is unbeatable. The home is so close to the public and private schools, to the METRO and to the shops/restaurants of Conn. and Wisc. Aves. It is inbounds for Oyster Bilingual School but is proximate to several independent schools For location, convenience, entertaining delight, light, space and flow this is a must see!
