Matterport 3D Tour

This single-floor residence offers an open and airy layout that combines the living, dining, and kitchen areas into one cohesive space. The living room is finished with plush wall-to-wall carpeting and features a full-width sliding glass door that floods the interior with natural light and provides direct access to an outdoor balcony, offering pleasant greenery views beyond. The textured ceiling adds a classic architectural touch throughout the space. The kitchen is positioned along the interior wall and is defined by a raised breakfast bar counter that serves as a natural divider between the living and cooking areas. Above the counter, a mounted black cabinet or media shelf adds a functional focal point. The kitchen is equipped with a sink and features light-toned cabinetry and countertops, creating a clean and practical workspace. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area benefits from an elegant pendant chandelier that anchors the space and adds a touch of warmth. The neutral, light-toned walls throughout enhance the sense of openness and allow natural light to reflect freely across each area. Together, the spaces create a welcoming, functional, and well-connected single-floor living environment.
