Offering 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this property blends comfort, functionality, and outdoor living, with two flagstone patio areas and three well-maintained decks. The inviting living room features a new Lopi wood stove and built-in entertainment center. The kitchen offers granite tile countertops and an impressive amount of cabinet and storage space throughout the home. Thoughtful custom touches include a window seat in the guest bedroom, a covered front entrance, and a spacious walk-in closet in the primary suite.
