The white shaker cabinets with quartz countertops, large single basin stainless steel sink, and glass subway tile backsplash in the kitchen are sure to impress. Cooking is a breeze with the stainless steel gas range and microwave. The 2nd floor and entrances have luxury vinyl flooring (LVP), and the 3rd-floor bathrooms and laundry closet have upgraded tile. Plantation shutters throughout the home including the slider provide both privacy and style. The home is pre-wired for surround sound in the living room and wired for Smart home tech including Cat6 wiring and fiber internet available for blazing-fast internet speeds.
