Head back upstairs & down the hallway toward the bedrooms. The primary is completed with beautiful wainscoting & crown molding. In the second bedroom, you’ll enjoy ample square footage & convenient in-unit laundry tucked away in the closet — plus, this room is outfitted with high-end Schumacher wallpaper.
