Rooms are easily adaptable for multiple uses with a murphy bed in one, and direct access to a deck from two of them. The home could easily be 5-6 bedrooms. The lower-level walkout suite has a soaking tub with a large window looking out into the forest. There's an abundance of storage throughout the home.
