Overlooking the yard, the living/dining room combination enjoys a to-the-ceiling brick fireplace and two sets of French doors to the pergola-covered patio. Providing even more space to entertain and relax, the family room features a fireplace, built-ins, and outdoor access. Three bedrooms sit in a quiet wing of the home, and the primary suite has abundant natural light and a door to the yard.
