Both bathrooms are also fully updated, with the lower-level bath featuring a very modern walk-in shower with herringbone tile and a stylish vessel sink. Throughout the home, there is new wood-look laminate flooring, fresh paint, modern light fixtures, and vaulted ceilings. All components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.
