A mudroom and powder room are convenient at the back of the hall. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a full bath.

Numerous upgrades include zoned heating system with smart thermostats, roof, insulation, 200-amp electric, double pane windows, Ring cameras, and Ethernet cable on all levels. Plumbing has been run to an upstairs bedroom to make it easy to convert into an additional full bath to create a primary suite if desired. The garage with screened porch has been finished with sliding door, A/C and overhead lighting. Potential uses include office, gym, art studio or workshop.
