The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring granite countertops, a bar-height island, and stainless steel appliances.

The spacious owner’s suite is a tranquil retreat, complete with built-in window seats, a unique “ship-propeller” ceiling fan, and a walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The ensuite has been updated with granite countertops, dual vanities, abundant storage, and a beautifully tiled shower with riverstone details, tastefully updated fixtures, and hardware. A privacy window and luxury vinyl tile flooring complete the space.
The two additional bedrooms are generously sized, each featuring a large closet (one cedar-lined) and multiple windows for ample natural light. The full hall bathroom is equally inviting, offering granite countertops with a copper sink, bronze fixtures, a large framed mirror, and a tile-surround bathtub with a privacy window.
