It even has high quality rolling shades on the sides for privacy when you want it. Inside is an adorable home with neutral décor & flooring, ready for your personalized touches. High ceilings with tons of windows and light. Roomy kitchen has dark cabinetry and a breakfast bar. Plantation shutters and decorator touches throughout. Loft area makes a perfect home office and stays cool with good AC venting! Brand new AC installed last month, so stay nice & cool this summer.
