Upstairs, both bathrooms have been fully updated with new vanities, toilets, and fixtures. The primary bedroom includes a newly renovated ensuite, while the lower-level bathroom offers ample space to add a shower or tub. The lower level features a large family room perfect for entertaining or setting up an office, as well as a small wet bar. Step outside to a backyard oasis with native plantings, including several varieties of milkweed to support the butterfly and wildlife ecosystem. The backyard is truly another living space, with a gentle hill perfect for a summer slip-and-slide and daily visits from birds, deer, and more. 2022 UPDATES: New well pump, high-quality carpet & ALL windows replaced, tri-locking doorway & addition of bay window.
