The dining room is open and adjacent to the living room, a perfect space for celebrating special dinners or intimate family meals. The beautifully updated kitchen is the heart of this home, appointed with cherry cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious peninsula. The built-in work station is the perfect nook for paying bills, organizing your calendar, or doing homework. The kitchen opens to a large and cozy family room, the ideal setup to keep an eye on young kids at play while preparing meals, and an even better setup for hosting large parties.
