The master suite is located on the main floor, while the third floor has three bedrooms and its own bathroom, thus giving privacy to all when wanted. This is a very comfortable home for day-to-day living. With its many windows and screened porches, this home is bright and airy, often times does not need AC due to the flow-through breezes. There is even a small screened porch directly off the kitchen that was designed just for the grill, and also a breakfast porch.

Just inside the front door is a room that was designed as an office with double entry doors, perfect for a business in the home.
