A second full bathroom with a tub/shower combo is centrally located for easy access.
Outside, the fun continues with a backyard made for memory-making. Challenge your crew to a match on the giant outdoor chess set, fire up the wood-burning grill in the covered barbecue area, or share a meal under the bistro lights at the outdoor dining table. A swingset provides entertainment for the little ones, while adults can relax on the shaded seating patio or the tree swing out front.
