Let its 1,110 square feet of hardwood floors with walnut inlay walk you through its renovated living spaces. Entertain guests in a separate dining room that sits near a bright and cozy kitchen that comes complete with a set of stainless steel appliances as well as gorgeous granite counters, and a bar counter.
