Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, each offering ample closet space and new ceiling fans for added comfort. A beautiful sunroom off the 3rd bedroom provides a beautiful green overlook to the large backyard.

The stamped concrete patio is perfect for entertaining, and the spacious yard is enclosed by a privacy fence, offering a serene and secure space for outdoor activities, gardening, and relaxation.
