Property Description

The open kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances and flows effortlessly into the living area, while aseparate dining space provides flexibility for entertaining. Built-in cabinetry surrounds the living room entertainment center, adding both function and custom appeal. The primary suite offers peaceful river views and a private bath with a walk-in shower, while the two guest bedrooms share a well-appointed second bath. The cottage is sold fully furnished, making it truly turnkey.
