This well-appointed 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence is laid out on a single floor, offering an efficient and functional design throughout. Warm hardwood flooring flows seamlessly across all main living areas, adding a rich, inviting character to the home. The kitchen is a standout feature, outfitted with crisp white shaker-style cabinetry, dark countertops, and a classic subway tile backsplash. Stainless steel appliances — including a gas range, dishwasher, and a side-by-side refrigerator with an ice and water dispenser — complete the space. Recessed lighting and a window allow for ample natural light. Both bedrooms are bright and airy, each benefiting from large windows that frame outdoor views. The primary bedroom is generously sized, offering a comfortable and versatile layout. The second bedroom, while more compact, maintains the same clean aesthetic with hardwood flooring and natural light. The bathroom is elegantly finished with large-format marble-look tile surrounding a full soaking tub and shower combination, complemented by chrome fixtures. Additional conveniences include a dedicated laundry area, a hallway, and a closet for extra storage. The overall ambiance is clean, modern, and move-in ready.

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.
