This home is designed and has a layout for two primary bedrooms (one on the first floor and one on the second). All bathrooms have been recently upgraded with beautiful features. Lots of closets in all rooms and even an elevator that ''moonlights'' as a bar. Enjoy the convenience of newer HVACs & appliances, elevator & a fenced in area. Lovely Hardwood floors and open floor plan. Off-street parking and a newer storage shed.
