The second floor includes a large primary bedroom with a walk-in closet, private deck, lovely gas fireplace, and laundry; a full bath with a deep soaking tub and multi-jet shower; two additional bedrooms (one of which is currently set-up as a fantastic home office), plus a bonus room ideal as an exercise area. Additional highlights include newly refinished wide pine floors, a screened porch, an architectural staircase with glass railings, flagstone patio, Ipe hardwood deck, and an attached two-car garage. A full unfinished basement offering loads of extra storage space is icing on the cake.
