The full kitchen offers parquet flooring, solid oak cabinetry, and ample counter space. It flows seamlessly out to a spacious backyard—the ultimate setting for summer barbecues and dining alfresco.
The second floor boasts two generously sized bedrooms, both with traditional wood flooring and good closet space. The primary bedroom features a unique, custom-built old-world closet, and the spacious primary bath is finished with ceramic tile.
The full basement provides excellent storage and comes equipped with updated mechanicals and newer CENTRAL air conditioning.
