The sprawling floor plan is anchored by two spacious master suites. An additional room serves as a private office with its own full bathroom, while a separate den provides an excellent multi-use space or optional fourth sleeping area. The custom kitchen is a chef's dream, boasting granite countertops and soft-close cabinets and drawers. Additional interior highlights include walk-in showers, expansive walk-in closets, a water softener system augmenting the public water supply, and a built-in main-level storm/tornado shelter for absolute peace of mind.
