Downstairs, the finished basement is packed with entertainment including a ping pong and pool combo table, an 800-game video arcade cocktail table, an electronic dartboard, and a dedicated board game area. A Roku TV with Hulu Live and Netflix is set in a groovy 70s-themed space.

Upstairs in the loft, enjoy a reading nook with books and coloring supplies, a gaming table, and an incredible view over the main living space and beyond.

Families with children are especially welcome, as the home includes a high chair, baby gates, pack n play, toddler dinnerware, bibs, a tummy time mat, infant tub, and infant vibrating seat. You'll also find books and toys for kids of all ages.

Sleeping arrangements are themed by animal design. The third-floor master bedroom, the "deer room," has a king bed and ensuite bath.
