These covered porches offer 800 sq. ft. of outdoor living space. The first floor boasts expansive living spaces with oversized windows for generous natural light. The large kitchen has a breakfast nook facing south with additional closets for storage. The upstairs is accessed from two staircases and has four generous bedrooms with ample closets, 2nd floor laundry room, great linen/storage closet, and updated guest bathroom. The primary suite is flooded with light and has a large walk-through closet and primary bath. A walk-up attic offers additional storage and potential expansion.
