Three generously sized bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level. Upstairs, a fourth bedroom is complemented by an unfinished storage room with excellent potential for a fifth bedroom, home office, or additional living space.The walkout lower level adds even more flexibility with a family room featuring a second fireplace, half bath, dedicated laundry room, mudroom, and direct access to the oversized two-car garage.
