There are 2 pantries that serve the kitchen, one being a walk-in and a convenient office space tucked just off the kitchen. Upstairs you will find 3 generous bedrooms, 2 full baths, a laundry center, storage and a built-in loft desk area with another wall of built ins. The primary bedroom boasts a walk-in closet and an en-suite bath with dual vanities, generous shower and water closet.
