New all-white kitchen has been opened to the dining/living room. Updated baths. Enormous picture windows in each of the major rooms provide beautiful views and great light. Separate first floor room functions perfectly as a fifth bedroom or home office. Hardwood floors throughout. Central A/C. Charming private walled garden out back with one deeded parking space just behind.
