All the bedrooms have hardwood floors. The oversized first bedroom has space for a king-sized bed, sitting area, and two closets. A newly renovated hall bath features a walk-in shower and a custom vanity. The second bedroom is currently a home office, but it would also make a great nursery, playroom, or standard bedroom.
