The second floor wrap-around interior balcony provides access to four spacious bedrooms with each having its own outdoor balcony and ensuite or shared bath. The space above the garage can serve for exercise, an in-law, an au paire suite, or an upstairs media space. Hip roofs with dormers and a beaded ceiling contribute light, sunshine, and space. The home’s lowest level offers two dorm rooms full of bunk beds; media, game, and entertainment areas; and lots of storage. The exterior is wrapped with open and large screen porches on each side. At $2,995,000, this beauty can be yours.
