Located across from a riverside park, the home offers stunning water views from the living room, primary suite, and expansive two-tier wrap-around deck. The main level features spacious rooms, a kitchen with stone countertops, stainless-steel appliances, center island, and deck access, plus a dining area for gathering. The living room includes a fireplace and panoramic views, while the family room offers a wood-burning fireplace. Two bedrooms with private baths complete the main level. The entire second floor is the primary suite with vaulted ceilings, oversized walk-in closet, and spa-like bath with jetted tub, separate shower, dual vanity, and bidet.
