The first floor flows beautifully from the kitchen to the dining room and into an oversized fireplaced living room. Off kitchen, a cozy screened-in porch begs for outdoor movie nights! Upstairs offers 3 generously sized bedrooms, full bath, storage closets & spacious primary suite with a large walk-in shower and ample storage. Need more? Mini splits for AC & a finished basement ideal for a home office, playroom, or den, an attached garage, 2 fireplaces, and a backyard made for relaxing and BBQs.
