This property is also listed as a 3 bed, 2.5 bath but has another 4th bedroom and full bath above the 2 car garage, and its on heat and air. This can be used as a 4th bedroom or as current owner has used it and that is as a rental for extra income. It has its own entrance separate from the rest of the house so it is not included in the square footage or listing since access is through unfinished space in the garage. Book your showing today!!
