The house is flooded with natural light as the entire rear is a sunroom with large windows overlooking the river with Savannah brick flooring. There are expansive decks and patios for you to enjoy the view as well. Off the dining room is a beautiful office with wood paneled walls. The kitchen boasts SubZero and Viking appliances. Upstairs is a gorgeous owner's suite with fully renovated bathroom with slipper tub, separate shower, heated floors, and great closet sizes with additional laundry hookups. There are three additional bedrooms with built-ins, large closets, hardwood floors, and the bathrooms have been updated.
