Abundant natural light and glossy hardwood flooring combine with two walk-in closets and a updated en-suite bathroom to make this a wonderful retreat from a busy day. Your other two bedrooms are across the main living area in a split floor plan. One roomy guest bedroom is towards the front of the home. The other sits behind two beautiful French doors adjacent to the second sitting area. Head into the kitchen to admire the old-world appeal and modern conveniences of this gorgeous room. Beadboard ceilings, paneled walls, stainless steel appliances, butcher block counters, a unique staircase to the loft (it is used for storage by the owners but could be a quiet nook for reading), plus a pretty pantry infuse this room with charm.
