The cozy family room highlights a stunning gas stone fireplace and convenient outside door access, perfect for unloading groceries from the detached garage. The four-season room, enclosed with windows, is equipped with heat and air conditioning, making it an ideal year-round retreat. Upstairs, a large attic space offers flexibility as an additional bedroom, office, or playroom. Car enthusiasts will be thrilled by the expansive 1,296 sq. ft. detached garage, capable of holding 4 to 6 vehicles.
