Two additional bedrooms are spacious and beautifully appointed, sharing an elegantly remodeled hall bath.
Above, a semi-finished attic with an additional half bath offers tremendous flexibility for storage, workshop space, studio use, or future expansion possibilities. The expansive unfinished basement provides even more storage and utility space.
