All the bedrooms are generous sized, with four bedrooms on the upper floor, including the master bedroom which has a private balcony deck and en-suite bath with double sinks. Downstairs offers more fun with a large family room with wet bar that connects to the outdoor lower-level deck. The 5th bedroom, with full bath on this level, would be a great guest or MIL space.
