French doors lead to a three-season room with vaulted ceiling and skylights creates a tranquil retreat for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or simply enjoying the changing seasons. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms provide serene accommodations, while a versatile loft-style flex space offers endless potential for a second office, studio, or guest area. Storage is abundant throughout, and thoughtful upgrades — including brand new hardwood flooring, a whole-house generator, newer AC system, and a two-car garage with basement access — add comfort and peace of mind.
