The lower level, open to the main level through a wide, central staircase, has the game/family room with pool table, air hockey, two-person arcade basketball, large flat screen TV and an attractive, roomy seating area; two bedrooms; spacious full bathroom; treadmill; and washer and dryer.

The house sits on a larger lot with tall pine trees and a camp fire pit overlooked by the deck off the main level.
