The expanded Kitchen offers loads of space, cabinet storage & countertops, tile flooring, recessed lighting, updated "Graystone" SS appliances, great natural light & convenient inside access to the attached 2 car garage (NOTE: due to the large amount of tools & utilities in the garage, access is not permissible for safety purposes, however there are several windows & doors that can be used to see the inside.

The home's formal Dining Rm off the Kitchen provides a great space for entertaining with those special occasion meals or day to day use & features loads of natural light from the oversized casement windows as well as added light from the Living Rm due to the custom arched opening! The Primary Bedroom offers plenty of space & natural light, a lighted ceiling fan, a walk-in closet w/ custom shelving to maximize storage space & a full private bath featuring tile fls, glass shower stall, vanity sink, mounted cabinet/shelf & side window for fresh air & added light!
