The dining room, open to the kitchen and accented with a VAULTED CEILING and wood beams, sets the stage for memorable gatherings. The primary suite is tucked away on the other side of the entry foyer for privacy and features a wood-paneled accent wall, and a spa-like bath with DUAL SINKS, a GARDEN TUB under a GLASS BLOCK WINDOW, and a large tiled shower. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms with 9-FOOT CEILINGS and a stylish full bath. A GUEST HALF BATH sits conveniently under the stairs.
