The first-floor primary bedroom provides convenience and privacy, complete with a full bath. Upstairs, you'll find 2 generously sized bedrooms with plenty of natural light. The finished lower level adds valuable living space with a walkout design ideal for a recreation room, guest area, or potential fourth bedroom. Outside, the property continues to impress with a 3-car detached garage, offering ample space for vehicles, tools, or hobbies.
