The front yard, also fenced, welcomes guests and their furry friends, adding to the home's charm and security.
Entertainment is never far with TVs equipped with Fire Sticks for easy streaming. A wall-mounted fireplace in the living area adds a cozy, magical touch, perfect for snuggling up for a movie. For the little ones, baby gear is provided.
