The expansive Family Room boasts a cozy gas fireplace, creating an ideal space for entertaining or relaxation. Adjacent to the Kitchen, the Dining Room showcases elegant chair rail, picture frame, and crown moldings, opening to the Living Room.

Upstairs, the Primary Bedroom Retreat offers a generous space with a Sitting Area, double closets, and a Private Owner's Bath featuring raised double vanities, a separate shower, and a soaking tub.
