An open floor plan optimizes the flow for entertaining yet assures built-in privacy for residents. The generously-sized living room with cathedral ceiling offers rear access overlooking the grounds. A gourmet kitchen is a jaw dropper, with a peninsula, white quartzite counters, stainless appliances and cabinetry that rises to the ceiling.

An attached two car garage provides inside access, and a detached garage. Highlights of the renovation include raised ceiling heights, spray foam insulation, new roof, new interior electrical system, and new interior plumbing system.
