A private deck off the primary bedroom offers a peaceful outdoor retreat. A second renovated full bathroom completes this level. The lower level offers an expansive recreation room with a second fireplace, built-in wet bar, and incredible storage. A large fourth bedroom and full bathroom provide flexible space for guests or a home office, along with a generous laundry room featuring side-by-side washer and dryer. The extensive updates continue outside, with a new roof (2018) including skylights and solar shades, all new fiber cement siding, new south-facing windows and doors, new gutters and downspouts, and fully rebuilt upper and lower decks. You won't find another home so thoughtfully cared for.
