The greatroom and kitchen areas feature an open concept floor plan, and you will be wowed by the soaring ceilings and natural lighting provided by eye level and clerestory windows. Stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and unique granite counter tops make the open kitchen pop. Two sets of French doors lead to a spacious, covered deck that overlooks the expansive rear lawn. Natural lighting is abundant in the master suite with floor to ceiling windows that lead the eye up to the vaulted, pine ceiling.
