The main floor also includes a guest suite with a bedroom and full bathroom. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, offering generous space and refined finishes. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms provide ample space for family and guests. The outdoor space is equally impressive, with a landscaped yard featuring turf and stone coping, creating a low-maintenance retreat that's perfect for relaxation or hosting.
