A brand-new full bath completed in 2026 adds even more convenience to the main level. Upstairs you'll find four additional bedrooms and a second full bath. Bedroom 1 features an impressive 9' x 8' walk-in closet, while Bedroom 4 offers the convenience of laundry tucked into its own walk-in closet. And there's still another level! The spacious finished attic offers three separate usable areas plus a large storage room, ideal for bedrooms, a family room, game room, hobby space, office, exercise area, or a combination of uses. The basement continues the theme of flexibility with a dedicated workshop and plenty of additional storage.
