The kitchen is a stand-out with an open, functional workspace, ready for everyday life or entertaining those larger get-togethers, and featuring an island, gas cooktop, double ovens, stainless steel appliances, and nearby laundry. Upstairs includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms, highlighted by a generous primary suite with marble-look tile floors, double vanity, soaking tub, porcelain shower, and walk-in closet.
