A mudroom and laundry lead to…wait for it…an ATTACHED 3 CAR GARAGE & separate RV parking, an absolute rarity! Upstairs is a beautiful primary ensuite w/vaulted ceilings, built-ins. Two sunny bedrooms share a full bath, and there is a great ‘loft’ that works as a perfect flex space or potentially add'l bedroom by adding a wall.
