The main floor also offers a full bath and bedroom off the main entrance. Upstairs provides 3 more spacious bedrooms, storage galore including a cedar closet, and a 3/4 bath to complete this ideal living space.Seller purchased from the original owner so has been loved for many years and is ready for the next lucky inhabitants to relax in the peaceful backyard while the soft sounds of church bells and local concerts waft over the trees!
