The spacious primary suite offers beautiful views, a large walk-in closet, & a private full bath. Additional highlights include a mudroom/laundry area, front & back covered porches, & a 25x15 concrete patio. The heated & insulated attached two-car garage features in-floor heat, its own air-to-air exchange system, & access to a large dog kennel. An additional jack pump for watering gardens & landscaping is located near the circular driveway.
