The large, windowed eat-in kitchen blends classic style with modern convenience. Outfitted with top-name appliances including a refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and microwave, the kitchen also features Caesarstone counters, subway tile backsplash, and an abundance of storage — including a pantry, broom closet, and even wine storage. A french doors open to a cozy dining nook with banquet, creating an inviting flow between kitchen and living spaces.

The king-size corner bedroom is filled with light throughout the day and offers excellent closet space, along with dual exposures to the South and West. A windowed bathroom with classic and modern tile work completes the home.
