The first floor bedroom has exposed logs and wall to wall carpeting. The full bath has barn-board tile floors, a large walk-in shower with detailed tile work and a granite-topped vanity.

Current owner uses first floor for home business and second floor as a workout area and storage. So many possibilities here!
