Great Home located in Wilson Village.

This is a huge property located right in the place that you want to be in Palmetto Bluff, Wilson Village. It had several master bedrooms, tons of porches, off street parking, and everything else you can want. The house was perfect. I would highly recommend and would stay there again.
