Located at 42 Magnolia, this single-floor residence makes an immediate impression with its notably high ceilings, which lend an airy, open feel to the main living area. A wood-bladed ceiling fan with a central light fixture is mounted overhead, providing both circulation and ambient lighting while emphasizing the generous vertical space above. The living area features neutral-toned wall-to-wall carpeting that extends throughout, creating a cohesive and comfortable foundation underfoot. A pass-through opening connects the living space to the kitchen, where white cabinetry lines the walls beneath track lighting, offering ample storage. Built-in appliances, including an oven and what appears to be a refrigerator, are integrated into the kitchen layout, and a countertop is visible at the pass-through window. A hallway visible from the main living area leads further into the unit, suggesting additional rooms beyond. The overall color palette is light and neutral throughout, with white walls and trim contributing to a clean, bright ambiance. The layout flows naturally from the main living space toward the kitchen and adjoining areas, offering a functional and well-connected floor plan.

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.
