Studio C retains its vintage farmhouse charm, with refinished original features including a double sink and a vintage double oven. New laminate flooring has been installed throughout. Outdoor living is a highlight, with a 50-foot covered patio w/ custom awning, ceiling fans & lighting ideal for entertaining.
