A large screened porch extends the living area outdoors. Created in 2023, this level is ideal for hosting guests or separate living quarters and is plumbed for a dedicated washer and dryer. Outdoor living is exceptional, with a stone patio for dining and entertaining, two screened balconies off two bedrooms, and tranquil wooded surroundings that offer privacy and a natural backdrop for gatherings. Whether enjoying morning coffee, hosting dinner parties, or relaxing at sunset, the home’s outdoor spaces invite year-round enjoyment. Storage is abundant throughout the home, including multiple walk-in closets, dedicated storage rooms, and a spacious 2-car garage.
