The updated kitchen showcases new cabinetry, butcher block countertops, tile backsplash (2020), and Samsung Bespoke smart appliances (2024). The main-level primary bedroom offers convenient one-level living, while the large sunroom provides year-round enjoyment with its own HVAC, propane heater, and new carpet.
