The straightforward 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom floor plan includes a third bedroom that currently functions as a versatile flex room—an ideal setup for an artist studio, home office, yoga, meditation, or workout space. Massive windows flood the interior with natural light, utilizing passive solar energy to keep the house efficiently warm.
