The living room leads to the kitchen with wood cabinetry and a dining area. The back door connects to the breezeway, while a hallway leads to a full bath with walk-in shower, a main-level laundry room, and a light-filled pine den featuring a natural gas stove and walk-out access to the deck. Upstairs offers endless potential for an in-law suite or primary retreat, complete with a kitchenette/sink room, full bath, bedroom, or office.
