Formal living and dining rooms provide room to host holidays and special occasions, while the family room with its brick fireplace serves as a natural cozy gathering place. Crown molding, decorative trim, and vaulted ceilings add warmth and character throughout. An unexpected bonus is the finished lower level, complete with its own kitchen, ¾ bath, and separate entrance. Whether you need space for extended family, long-term guests, a home office, hobbies, or changing household needs, this versatile area offers exceptional flexibility. Outside, an incredible two-tier composite deck provides plenty of room for grilling, outdoor dining, and gathering with friends, while the private backyard offers a level area for play, gardening, and other outdoor fun.
