Open to the kitchen is a cozy family room with a fireplace and beautifully detailed custom ceiling moldings. Adjacent to the family room is a practical mud/laundry room, perfectly located just off the attached two-car garage. Toward the back of the home, a spacious screened porch—added by the current owners approximately 15 years ago—offers a peaceful place to relax and take in the natural beauty of the yard, which is filled with mature trees, flowering azaleas, and lush, well-maintained landscaping. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a true retreat with its own private sitting room, dressing area, and a luxurious ensuite bath featuring a Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and dual vanities. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and a fully renovated hall bath with double sinks complete the upper level.
