The main level features a spacious living room with an abundance of natural light, two-story vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, skylights, and large windows with double-glass doors leading to a generous back deck. A well-appointed kitchen, featuring cherry cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a dedicated pantry, and an eat-in area, is at the heart of this home.
