This single-story space showcases a striking industrial aesthetic rooted in its original architectural bones. The open-concept layout connects the kitchen and living areas seamlessly, creating a sense of expansive, uninterrupted space. Soaring ceilings with fully exposed wooden rafters and a prominent ventilation duct running overhead lend an authentic loft character. A large structural timber post anchors the interior, adding to the raw, warehouse-inspired atmosphere. The kitchen features white shaker-style cabinetry, a peninsula with a dark countertop that provides additional prep and seating space, a stainless steel sink, and a dishwasher. Warm-toned pendant lights hang from the ceiling, casting focused illumination over the kitchen area and contributing to an inviting ambiance. The living area transitions to plush carpet flooring, contrasting with the hardwood-style flooring in the kitchen. An exposed brick wall runs along one side, reinforcing the industrial character, while a tall, narrow window allows natural light to filter in. The combination of original materials and modern updates gives this space a distinctive, urban edge.

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.
