Natural light fills the main level, where the white eat-in kitchen features natural stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an open connection to the spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace. Easy-care luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout. The primary suite provides a private bath with shower, a walk-in closet with a custom organization system, and convenient washer/dryer hookups. A second bedroom and full hall bath complete the main level.
