The updated kitchen blends style and functionality with quartz countertops, newer appliances, a natural gas range, a spacious refrigerator, a breakfast bar, and a dedicated coffee station. The generous living area, complete with an electric fireplace, flows seamlessly into the dining room, while glass French doors offer a touch of elegance and the option for separation without sacrificing the home’s connected feel. Just off the living room, a charming study provides additional flexibility and could easily serve as a 3rd bedroom.
