Your beautiful eat-in kitchen is to the left, and directly ahead the hall leads to an open concept formal dining area and living room with gas fireplace, gorgeous built-in cabinetry and sliders to spacious private deck. Two separate hallways off the main hall lead to a full bath, a large storage closet, one large bedroom with double closets; and the other leads to a utility area, laundry closet with storage, and primary suite with full bath and enviable walk-in closet. There are NO STAIRS in this unit or leading to it, which is a rare find!
