Bedrooms & Layout

Guests also have a rear patio with seating overlooking a fenced backyard.

A standout feature is the very large, fully stocked kitchen with new cabinets and countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and major appliances including a refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave, and more. The dining room includes a large farmhouse table (with chairs and a bench) plus a matching sideboard. Essentials for daily life are supported with small appliances, utensils/cookware, starter toiletries, and games, along with air conditioning and an ironing board.
Work-Friendly Features
