A stunning 2005 library addition features custom Douglas fir timber frame construction and connects through a hidden passageway to an expansive in-law suite with a kitchenette and separate garage access. The library also includes beautifully tiled bath with seamless shower design on the first floor, making this home ideal for multigenerational living or guest accommodations. The heated oversized 2-car garage has an interior handicap-accessible ramp, while the breezeway and two-level wraparound deck create inviting transitional living and entertaining spaces. The kitchen is equally impressive with custom cherry cabinetry, tiled flooring, a large quartz breakfast island, JennAir cooktop, and Kenmore double ovens. Additional highlights include 7-zone radiant heat throughout, pellet stove, and a beehive oven and fireplace in the basement. The walkout basement also has it’s own garage-door for toys and equipment storage. Major system updates include roof, plumbing, electrical, furnace, and insulation.
