On the lower level, a spacious recreation room offers versatility, featuring built-in storage, a full wet bar, and a convenient mudroom leading to the outdoor patio. A fourth bedroom with two large closets, a full bath, and an in-unit washer and dryer complete this level, ensuring effortless living.
