Two of the bedrooms feature easy-care laminate flooring, including one with an upstairs laundry setup added by a previous owner (which could be converted back to a closet if preferred). The remaining bedrooms have plush carpet for comfort and noise reduction. An updated hall bathroom rounds out the upper level. The finished lower level provides even more flexible living space; ideal for a teen lounge, playroom, gym, or media area. A custom stained wood shiplap accent wall adds warmth, and soft carpeting makes the space inviting for kids and guests alike. A full bathroom is available on this level and an additional finished room with laminate flooring and a closet could serve as an additional office, or hobby room. There's rough-in plumbing ready for a future wet bar. Walk-up stairs lead directly to the backyard for easy access.
