At the heart of the home is the beautifully updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, modern cabinetry, updated appliances, generous prep and storage space, and an open connection to the spacious family room with vaulted ceilings. The flowing floor plan creates comfortable spaces for gatherings while still offering distinct areas for relaxation and everyday life. The main-level primary suite provides a private retreat with a generous sitting area, while three additional bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests, a home office, or creative space.
