The three additional bedrooms on this level are large and bright with tall windows and deep closets and the newer family bath boasts gorgeous marble and subway tile as well as a Bain soaking tub and completes this level. The third floor attic houses the spacepak and provides additional easily accessible storage space. The high and dry lower level has even more space with a large recreational area (second family room?); a spacious fifth bedroom and a convenient full bath (teen or guest's haven!); a spacious clean laundry room, and a separate room with mechanicals and tons of additional storage.
