Rounding out the first floor is your family room with a floor to ceiling brick fireplace flanked by open shelving and a cathedral ceiling.

All upper floor bedrooms have hardwood floors under the carpet. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are just steps away from the beautifully remodeled full bath with granite countertop, double sinks and a tub/shower combo. The primary bedroom offers you both tranquility and privacy. The bedroom is spacious and is adjoined by a sitting room leading to both your grand walk in closet and an amenity filled five piece master bath with dual shower heads in your spacious tiled shower, double sinks within your granite countertop, and your jetted soaking tub with a dedicated hot water heater. Moving to the lower level you will find an enormous finished room which could be used as an in-law suite or income suite as it offers a private entrance from your three car garage.
