At 13.5 x 16.1, the bedroom easily fits large furniture and provides the ideal foundation for a true owner’s retreat. Additional highlights include a light-filled sunroom, detached oversized two-car garage, and multiple flexible living spaces that can be reimagined for modern lifestyles, including home offices, media rooms, or private retreats for every family member. Encapsulated crawlspace.
