From the living room, French doors open up right onto the balcony, just expanding your living space and boasting a dreamy perch to enjoy the fresh air and captivating views.

The living area seamlessly flows right into the kitchen, and potential for a dining area awaits right by windows where you can enjoy the view while you dine. Even more seating can be found at the center island, the perfect spot to gather around whether you’re visiting with guests and sipping on wine or spending the day making holiday cookies with loved ones. The kitchen’s generous square footage offers ample storage in handsome cabinetry, and large counters ensure there’s room for meal prep and all of your kitchen appliances.

On the second story you’ll find 3 bedrooms (including the sumptuous master suite), as well as a laundry room that makes it easy to stay organized while ensuring you don’t have to worry about hauling laundry up and down the stairs.
