Upstairs, the second level hosts a spacious primary bedroom and a beautifully appointed full bath with a soaking tub and separate shower. A second large bedroom with a laundry closet completes this floor. On the third level, you'll find an additional large bedroom and a versatile bonus room—ideal as an office, den, or fourth bedroom—with access to a fabulous deck, perfect for entertaining or enjoying your morning coffee in the sun.
