Upon entering the living area you will be greeted with ship lap walls, built in shelving, a decorative fireplace, and large french doors to the private patio providing tons of natural light to the living space.Up a few steps and you will be in the kitchen, the kitchen was recently updated with soap stone counters, subway tile backsplash, and new appliances. The kitchen has plenty of space for your day to day cooking but it is on the smaller side. Off the kitchen you have the spacious bathroom with laundry. Also on this level is the the large bedroom, plenty of room for a king, dressers, and if you are looking to add additional storage there is plenty of room for a wardrobe.
