The generous dining room can seat up to 10 for family dinners and game night gatherings while the sun-filled great room has a large gas fireplace, a flatscreen TV, ceiling fans, and two comfy couches for movie watching or afternoon naps. Sliding doors open up onto a welcoming mahogany deck for outdoor dining, entertaining, and grilling on the Weber gas grill. The firepit in the yard is perfect for chilly nights and for roasting marshmallows with the kids. A large, circular driveway provides plenty of parking for you and your guests. The main bedroom has a king-size bed with direct access to a large bathroom with a walk-in shower and a double sink. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the third bedroom has a twin-over-full bunk bed and a TV. Each bedroom provides beach towels and terry bathrobes in the closet for your use. These bedrooms share a hall bathroom with a tub and shower. You'll have mudroom access in the laundry room with plenty of hooks for wet bathing suits and towels or soggy snow boots in the winter.
