The primary suite and a delightful sunroom both overlook the courtyard as well. The home lives large with two generously-sized bedrooms, a den, and a flex room.

The den has two skylights, the primary suite bath has a skylight as well. The laundry room and the hall bath both have ceiling sun tunnels bringing in even more natural light.
