This single-floor space showcases a thoughtfully designed open-concept layout that seamlessly integrates the kitchen, living, and dining areas into one cohesive environment. The kitchen is outfitted with crisp white cabinetry, dark granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a full-sized refrigerator, and a deep single-basin sink. A slate-blue tile backsplash adds a striking contrast to the white cabinetry, lending the kitchen a polished, contemporary aesthetic. The highly reflective, dark-toned polished concrete floors extend throughout the entire space, contributing to a sleek, modern ambiance while amplifying the abundant natural light streaming in from the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. These oversized windows frame urban views and serve as a defining architectural feature of the space. The living area is furnished with a light-toned sectional sofa accented with blue throw pillows, while the compact dining area features a round table with elegant blue accent chairs. A patterned area rug anchors the dining and living zones, adding texture and warmth. Track lighting overhead provides additional illumination, complementing the natural light throughout.

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.
