All four bedrooms are situated on the second floor, providing ample privacy and room for everyone. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring its own ensuite bath, while the additional bedrooms share a conveniently located hall bath. As you enter the home, you’re greeted by an elegant staircase that adds a touch of architectural flair and offers easy access from the foyer and there is even a second staircase in the family room. This unique feature enhances the flow and openness of the layout, perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. The first floor also includes a dedicated home office, ideal for remote work, studying, or pursuing hobbies. The main level is designed for comfort and versatility, with a spacious family room that flows effortlessly into the kitchen and dining areas.

Traveling during summer travel and holiday weekends is painful on 95 and surrounding roads with influx and outflux of people traveling. "
