Entering the upper level, you discover a generous-sized master bedroom with a spacious walk-in closet and attached 5-piece bathroom inclusive of double vanity, free standing tub, large luxurious shower, and separate toilet room. Three sizable secondary bedrooms, a full bath, and a considerably-sized laundry room with two large fixed-pane windows complete the upper level.
