The third floor offers a private bedroom suite of its own, ideal for visiting family or a home away from the main living areas. Every bedroom in this home comes with its own full bathroom, a detail owners describe as a true game changer for hosting — no scheduling, no shared space, just effortless privacy for everyone under one roof.
