Upon entry there is a large walk-in closet for all of your clothing and storage needs. To the right of the entryway is a bright and pleasant little kitchen with a marmoleum floor. There is a full sized fridge and a 5 burner gas stove with a standard oven. The kitchen sink is set beneath a nice window with a bamboo shade. The original built-in cabinetry is floor to ceiling. The cabinet right of the sink is a California cooler cabinet, which traditionally was used to keep fruits and vegetables cool. The wide cabinet has an abundance of storage room and is fully stocked with everything you need. There is also a tall top table with 2 stools.
