The primary suite is a private retreat, featuring a walk-in closet, tray ceiling, and an atrium door leading to the patio. The ensuite bath includes dual vanities, a stall shower, and a private water closet. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry room complete the main level. The finished basement offers additional living space with a full bath and an unfinished bonus room that could easily be converted into a fourth bedroom.

The termite treatment is also guaranteed for 10 years, adding peace of mind.
