Location & Setting

Layout & Flow
From the moment you enter, you’ll notice the vaulted ceiling in the living room, oak hardwood floors, and generous natural light. RE/MAX LLC
The open plan flows from living to dining to kitchen, which makes it ideal for everything from quiet evenings to hosting friends/family.
The primary suite is tucked down its own wing—offering privacy—and features not just a walk-in closet, but a second closet, plus direct patio access. The ensuite bathroom brings in luxury: oversized walk-in shower, jetted tub, split vanities (one of which is wheelchair accessible). RE/MAX LLC
Across the house you’ve got three additional bedrooms and a guest bath with dual sinks. Plenty of flexibility: office, guest room, play zone for kids, home gym—take your pick.
