Welcome home to this spectacular Landmark Homes rambler in St. Croix's Sanctuary community.  The manicured front landscaping adds character to the home while the side load garage blends wonderfully with the craftsman style facade.  Inside, the large foyer and vaulted great room - and it's wall of windows - offer light and views of the backyard from every angle.  French doors lead to a private office with custom built-ins and transom windows with more craftsman details. The open floor plan allows the great room with stacked stone fireplace to flow into the formal dining room with access to the deck and around to the gourmet kitchen.  Custom alder cabinets, a lovely breakfast bar with granite countertops, and top of the line stainless steel appliances make every meal a joy to cook and eat.  A back hall leads to the half bath, sunroom with heated floors, laundry and huge 4-car heated garage.  The main floor primary bedroom is tucked away, offering an oasis at the end of the day - spacious and featuring built-ins, cutouts, a massive walk-in closet, and a lovely window bench with more views of the wooded backyard.  There is also a private primary 5 piece bathroom - heated floors, soaking tub, water closet, walk-in shower and dual sinks - making space for everyone to get ready for the day.  The lower level offers more space to both live and entertain.  Fantastic 10' ceilings make this space feel like anything other than a basement.  The wet bar and built-ins are perfect for movie night - or step out onto the patio and enjoy the hot tub.  The lower level also features three large bedrooms - each with it's own walk-in closet - and a full bath.  The nearly acre lot has plenty of open space for activities, a flagstone patio for bonfires, and a backdrop of trees for both privacy and nature views.
