Upstairs, the primary suite has a huge walk-in closet, plus a luxurious private bath. The family room, just down from the main living area, has built-ins and an electric fireplace. And you'll have another bedroom and third full bath, hideaway office or hobby room, and a sunroom that's a wonderful artists studio. Plenty of storage inside and out! Finally, you'll love the deck and landscaping, and the privacy that backing to tree provides. By the way -- new roof and skylights in late 2023!
