Luxurious second full bath to satisfy any needs. Both baths feature Japanese commode with heated auto open/close seats. Two expertly designed bedrooms fit to maximize space, each with architectural vaulted ceilings & both with front-facing windows (instead of a neighbors wall) to let light pour in, including quaint built-in window reading nook.
