This thoughtfully designed single-floor space blends contemporary style with functional living. The entryway leads directly into a well-appointed galley-style kitchen, characterized by clean white cabinetry, a light wood-toned countertop, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator, range, and over-the-range microwave. Recessed and flush-mounted linear lighting illuminates the corridor-style kitchen, enhancing the crisp, modern aesthetic. Light hardwood flooring runs throughout, contributing warmth and continuity to the space. A textured runner rug anchors the kitchen walkway, adding a subtle design detail. The kitchen opens seamlessly into a living area that benefits from floor-to-ceiling windows, flooding the space with abundant natural light and offering open city views beyond. The living area is furnished minimally, reinforcing a clean and uncluttered atmosphere. The overall color palette is neutral and contemporary, with white walls, grey tones, and metallic finishes working in harmony. The layout is efficient and well-organized, making excellent use of the available footprint while maintaining a sense of openness and flow throughout the 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.
