The kitchen is a joy to cook in and effortless to keep clean with quartz counters, a large island, bright cabinetry, custom pantry racks and updated appliances.

Gas on-demand hot water, efficient direct-vent gas heat with recirculation and fresh-air ducts to the upper floor and a heated double garage with electric opener and abundant storage under the stairs.
