Just off the laundry area is a versatile third bedroom or office featuring tile flooring, a closet, and serene views of the backyard. Two additional bedrooms are located off the main living areas, each boasting hardwood floors and walk-in closets. The full bathroom is rich in vintage charm with a clawfoot tub, pedestal sink, skylight, built-in storage, and wood flooring. The backyard is a west-side sanctuary-offering a covered patio, year-round gazebo that shields from wind and weather, a geodesic greenhouse, blooming wildflowers, and a trellis woven with vines.
