The living area features a wood-burning stove with brick surround and flows naturally into the kitchen, which offers ample cabinet and counter space. Multiple windows and skylights bring in natural light while showcasing the surrounding greenery. The home includes comfortable bedroom spaces, including a wood-paneled bedroom with hardwood flooring. The full bathroom features a tub/shower combination, skylight, and generous vanity space. Outside, the heavily wooded setting, mature landscaping, and spacious yard provide privacy and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors.
