A welcoming lounge area near the entry is furnished with rich cognac leather chairs, a sculptural chandelier, and oversized windows that frame views of the surrounding streetscape, lending an open, airy quality to the space. Moving deeper into the interior, a dining and social zone features leather banquette seating with marble-top tables and nailhead-trim accent chairs, illuminated by warm wall sconces set against textured panel backdrops. A communal high-top table with blue bar seating provides an additional gathering option nearby. A wet bar kitchenette is outfitted with warm wood cabinetry, a light quartz countertop, a tile backsplash, a stainless steel sink, and a beverage refrigerator — ideal for hosting and entertaining. Built-in shelving with curated décor and artwork further enhances the refined, residential-inspired atmosphere throughout this well-appointed community space.

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.
