This single-floor residence offers a thoughtfully designed layout that seamlessly connects the main living areas. The open-plan living and dining space is anchored by rich hardwood-style flooring, a textured ceiling, and ceiling fans that add both function and character. A large sliding glass door floods the living room with natural light, while a pendant light fixture defines the dining area, which comfortably accommodates a round table and chairs. The living room features crown molding and a cozy seating arrangement centered around a glass coffee table and area rug. The galley-style kitchen is well-equipped, showcasing white cabinetry, granite countertops, a mosaic tile backsplash, and black appliances. A pass-through breakfast bar with seating connects the kitchen to the main living space, enhancing the open feel. The bedroom is a tranquil retreat, carpeted for comfort, with a ceiling fan, natural light from a window with blinds, and ample space for furnishings. Two bathrooms serve the residence — one featuring a granite vanity and hardwood-style flooring, and the other with a full tub-shower combination. Throughout, neutral gray tones and warm wood finishes create a cohesive and inviting ambiance.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
