This wonderful open floor plan 3/2/1 has an awesome bonus room with built in storage between the upstairs bedrooms. The primary suite is located on the first floor as well as an office (or formal dining room) with natural lighting and French doors leading out to the foyer and front entrance. High ceilings and French doors framing a cozy fireplace lead to a lush backyard oasis complete with a beautifully shaded pool and deck accompanied by a very practical astroturfed dog run side yard.
