Exit from the kitchen to the beautifully landscaped yard with an inviting pool and patio. The second floor offers 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a 1/2 bath. The fifth bedroom has its own private bath and is the perfect arrangement for a Nanny or guests. A laundry closet is located on this level. A bonus is having a back staircase to the kitchen.
