This contemporary single-floor residence showcases a thoughtfully designed open-concept layout that seamlessly connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas.

Light wood-tone flooring runs throughout, lending warmth and visual continuity to the space.

The living area is bathed in natural light through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the surrounding neighborhood, creating an airy, connected atmosphere. A low-profile media console anchors the room, complemented by a comfortable seating arrangement beneath the oversized windows.

The bedrooms are serene and well-proportioned, each finished with soft neutral walls and light hardwood flooring. One bedroom benefits from a large window that frames an outdoor view, while the other features a round wall mirror that enhances its sense of space.

The bathroom is clean and modern, highlighted by a glass-enclosed walk-in shower finished with crisp white subway tile and polished chrome fixtures, reflecting the home's consistent contemporary aesthetic throughout. This single-floor space presents a contemporary lobby and amenity area defined by a refined blend of warm and neutral materials. The main lobby immediately draws attention with its striking slatted wood ceiling panels, recessed lighting, and light hardwood flooring that flows throughout the entire space, creating a sense of visual continuity. A central communal table with vibrant orange chairs anchors the open lounge area, positioned atop a patterned area rug that adds depth and texture to the floor plane. Steel-framed glass partitions divide portions of the space while maintaining visual openness, offering a glimpse into an adjacent meeting or dining area beyond. Near the entry vestibule, floor-to-ceiling glass doors and windows flood the transitional zone with natural light, where a compact round table and pendant globe fixtures create an inviting nook. A secondary seating area features a built-in L-shaped bench upholstered in warm caramel tones with textured gray walls and a sculptural wall sconce, lending a cozy, boutique atmosphere. A corridor extends toward a mailroom area, flanked by additional seating with paired lounge chairs against a textured feature wall. Throughout, the design strikes a balance between functional utility and sophisticated aesthetic, making this a welcoming and well-appointed communal environment. This contemporary amenity lounge is designed with an open, flowing layout that seamlessly connects multiple distinct zones across a single level. At the heart of the space sits a substantial granite-topped island with a textured concrete base, flanked by warm cognac leather bar stools — an inviting centerpiece for casual gatherings or collaborative work. Overhead, a striking arrangement of large dome pendant lights in a bronze finish draws the eye upward toward soaring double-height ceilings accented by a recessed wood-paneled coffer detail.

Adjacent to the island, a large communal dining table with wood chairs occupies a defined area anchored by a natural fiber rug, ideal for group meals or meetings. Expansive floor-to-ceiling glass walls and garage-style doors open directly onto a furnished outdoor terrace, flooding the interior with natural light and creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.

The lounge area features generous sectional seating, a sleek wall-mounted fireplace with a stone surround, and a wood slat ceiling detail with pendant globe lighting. A built-in media wall with integrated cabinetry and ambient backlighting adds a refined focal point. Semi-private nook seating defined by vertical wood slat partitions offers quieter retreat options within the larger communal space. Light hardwood flooring unifies the entire layout, complemented throughout by warm wood tones, textured wall finishes, and a cohesive modern palette. This contemporary single-floor communal lounge is defined by its bright, open design and an abundance of natural light streaming through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows with sleek black frames. The windows wrap generously around the main seating area, offering wide views of surrounding greenery and the outdoors, creating a seamless connection between the interior and exterior environments.

The primary lounge area centers around a curved sectional sofa in rich earth tones, complemented by a round stone coffee table and layered area rugs that add warmth to the light wood flooring. Swivel accent chairs in neutral upholstery are thoughtfully arranged to encourage conversation. A striking dome pendant light anchors the room visually from above.

Along one wall, a linear fireplace with a light brick surround and an integrated wood and stone wet bar provides a cozy focal point, adding both warmth and elegance to the space. Recessed lighting and subtle wall sconces contribute to a refined atmosphere throughout.

A secondary nook offers a more intimate setting, featuring a built-in banquette with velvet upholstery, open wood shelving with decorative accents, and a small café-style table with wooden chairs — ideal for casual meetings or quiet relaxation. Fluted wall panels and a slatted accent wall add refined textural detail to this area.

Overall, the space exudes a modern, welcoming ambiance suited for both socializing and unwinding. This single-floor pet grooming facility is thoughtfully designed to be both functional and visually engaging. The space is anchored by multiple professional-grade stainless steel dog bathing stations, each equipped with handheld spray attachments and built-in steps for easy pet access. Exposed copper plumbing adds an industrial touch that complements the overall aesthetic.

The walls feature a striking two-tone design: a lower half clad in clean, glossy white subway tiles, transitioning to whitewashed brick above. The brick is adorned with a bold, Keith Haring-inspired mural depicting a red dog and cascading graphic figures, lending the space a playful, urban art gallery feel. The motif continues across the upper walls, creating an immersive and lively atmosphere.

The flooring is finished in a smooth, light blue-gray surface, practical for a wet environment and easy to maintain. Large floor-to-ceiling windows along one wall flood the space with abundant natural light and offer open views of the surrounding streetscape. A connecting door leads directly to an adjacent lobby area, ensuring convenient access. Warm recessed cove lighting along the ceiling adds a soft, welcoming glow. The overall ambiance balances practicality with personality, making it an inviting environment for both pets and their owners. This contemporary fitness center is thoughtfully designed across a single floor, offering a comprehensive range of workout zones to accommodate diverse training needs. The facility is divided into several distinct areas, each purpose-built to maximize functionality and user experience.

The cardio zone features a generous row of treadmills and elliptical trainers positioned alongside floor-to-ceiling windows, flooding the space with natural light and offering outdoor views — an energizing environment for endurance training. Soaring double-height ceilings in this section are highlighted by striking geometric LED light fixtures that lend a modern, architectural character to the room.

The strength training area is outfitted with premium Matrix cable and functional trainer machines, free weights including a full dumbbell rack, adjustable benches, and multi-functional power racks. Recessed linear LED lighting runs throughout, maintaining a clean, polished aesthetic across the tile and rubber flooring.

A dedicated studio room features light wood flooring and houses spin bikes, stability balls, kettlebells, resistance bands, and foam rollers — ideal for group classes or individual functional training. Wall-mounted TVs are present throughout the facility.

The space benefits from abundant natural light through large windows, a neutral white palette, and a well-organized layout that creates an open, professional fitness environment.

School data provided by 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.
