The rest of the main level includes three bedrooms, an updated full bathroom, and a half bath located just off the garage entry. Additional spaces such as a den, formal dining room, and a gorgeous remodeled entryway with high end custom mosaic floor tile and warm wood ceiling details for everyday living or entertaining. The finished lower level has a full sized walkout door for easy egress, a spacious family room with a brick fireplace, a full bathroom, and generous storage shelves and hobby space. Outside, the fenced backyard offers privacy and room to relax or entertain, while the oversized attached two-car garage with service door adds practicality.
