A FR, w/vaulted ceiling, gas FP, banks of windows, & access to both the front deck & back patio, unites the kitchen w/the garage. The LR, w/closet, is also adjacent to the kitchen. A hall, w/closet, accesses the three ML BRs (one w/a wardrobe). Buyers will appreciate the updated, modern bath, which features a large shower w/built-in seat, & a combination W/D. There's also a cabinet in which to keep towels & bath items organized & out of sight. The LL is comprised of a FR, office/craft/toy room, 3/4 bath, bonus room (future 4th BR?) & a dedicated storage room w/shelving.
