The first floor features a tile foyer entry leading to a modern kitchen with oak cabinets and stainless steel appliances. A sun-drenched dining area boasts a built-in mid-century-inspired credenza and wet bar and enough room for a dinner party of eight. Sliders invite the outside in and lead to a sunny patio with brick pavers and flowering gardens, perfect for summer days spent gardening and nights grilling and dining al fresco. A convenient powder room rounds out the floor. Upstairs, find a spacious living room with hardwood floors and three large windows, flooding the room with natural light.
