The spacious kitchen offers plenty of cabinet storage, room for a large table and space to entertain. Access the deck from the kitchen or great room. Three large bedrooms and two full bathrooms complete the main level. The finished lower level, with a second kitchen, family room and separate entry, could be an in-law space.
