Boasting 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this property perfectly blends modern comfort with rustic charm. The heart of the home is the newly renovated kitchen, featuring butcher block countertops, a stylish tile backsplash, updated cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a large gathering room anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, making it an ideal space for entertaining. Retreat to the primary bedroom suite, which boasts a striking second fireplace, a custom wood-slat accent wall, a large walk-in closet, and a private ensuite bathroom complete with dual sinks.
