This single-floor unit offers a practical and functional layout across several well-defined spaces. The living area is generously proportioned, featuring plush carpeting, a ceiling fan, and a textured ceiling. A full-width sliding glass door fills the room with natural light and opens directly onto a private balcony, which overlooks a landscaped outdoor setting with tree views—particularly striking during autumn foliage season. The galley-style kitchen is efficiently designed with light wood cabinetry lining both walls, granite-look countertops, and a drop-panel ceiling with integrated lighting. Stainless steel appliances, including a refrigerator and dishwasher, are complemented by a black electric range, and the stone-tile flooring adds a durable, neutral finish throughout the kitchen and entryway areas. The bedroom is carpeted and includes a ceiling fan, built-in wire shelving for storage, and a window that provides additional natural light. A separate open room with drop-panel ceiling and dual flooring surfaces offers flexible use as a secondary living or recreational space. The bathroom is clean and well-appointed, featuring a light wood vanity with a white countertop, a mirrored medicine cabinet, a tub-shower combination, and matching stone-tile flooring consistent with the rest of the unit.

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.
