Rubber-backed carpet flooring throughout provides cushioning and durability. The space is accessed through glass-paneled double doors and maintains a bright, airy ambiance throughout, making it a well-rounded and inviting facility for all fitness levels. This modern lobby makes an immediate impression with its soaring ceiling heights, crisp white walls, and large-format light stone tile flooring that seamlessly transitions to pale hardwood throughout the interior zones. A dramatic living green wall — cascading with lush, varied plantings arranged across a textured concrete surface — serves as the space's defining centerpiece, bringing a vibrant, organic element to the otherwise clean, minimal aesthetic.

Natural light pours in through expansive floor-to-ceiling steel-framed windows, offering street views and filling the space with warmth throughout the day. A sleek, wood-paneled reception desk anchors the entry, providing a welcoming focal point upon arrival. Exposed concrete columns punctuate the open plan, lending an industrial counterpoint to the refined finishes.

Distinct lounge areas are thoughtfully arranged throughout, featuring contemporary upholstered seating, marble-patterned area rugs, and curated open shelving with decorative objects. A glass-enclosed private room with black steel framing offers a quiet retreat within the larger space. The dedicated mailroom is outfitted with extensive built-in mailboxes framed by warm wood cabinetry and illuminated by sleek linear ceiling lighting. Together, these elements create a cohesive, design-forward environment that balances warmth, functionality, and architectural distinction. This contemporary single-floor residence showcases a clean, modern design characterized by an all-white palette, light hardwood flooring, and an abundance of natural light throughout. The open-concept kitchen flows seamlessly into the living area, creating an inviting and functional space. The kitchen is outfitted with sleek, flat-front white cabinetry extending to the ceiling, a white quartz countertop peninsula with an undermount sink, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a French door refrigerator, electric range, built-in microwave, and dishwasher. A white subway tile backsplash adds subtle texture to the space. The living area is anchored by a large, black-framed picture window that frames striking urban cityscape views, filling the room with natural light. The bedroom continues the modern aesthetic with its own floor-to-ceiling black-framed window overlooking the city skyline, creating a bright and airy retreat. A generously sized walk-in closet with dual hanging rods provides ample storage. The bathroom features an all-white finish with large-format tile, a soaking tub with an overhead shower, and a floating vanity with a wide mirror. Recessed lighting throughout and elevated ceilings complete the polished, contemporary feel of this well-designed residence. This contemporary single-floor residence is defined by a clean, minimalist aesthetic carried consistently throughout every room. Light hardwood flooring runs seamlessly across the open-concept living and kitchen areas, complementing the crisp white walls and recessed lighting that together create a bright, airy atmosphere. The living area benefits from expansive floor-to-ceiling windows with black frames, inviting abundant natural light and offering open views of the surrounding urban streetscape. The kitchen is designed for both function and style, featuring high-gloss white cabinetry extending to the ceiling, a white quartz peninsula with bar seating, subway tile backsplash, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances. A connecting hallway, accented with framed artwork, leads to the private quarters. The bedrooms are generously proportioned with tall ceilings and light-toned flooring, providing a calm and restful environment. The bathrooms maintain the home's modern sensibility, finished with large-format neutral tiles, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and clean white vanities. Throughout, the design prioritizes natural light, open sightlines, and a refined, contemporary palette that gives the entire residence a cohesive and polished character.

School data provided by GreatSchools 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.
