This contemporary two-floor space showcases a clean, modern design with light hardwood flooring running throughout both levels, creating a cohesive and airy aesthetic. The open-concept lower level seamlessly connects the living area to the kitchen, which serves as a functional centerpiece of the home. The kitchen is outfitted with a striking two-tone cabinet design, pairing dark espresso upper cabinets with crisp white lower cabinetry. A full suite of stainless steel appliances—including a refrigerator, electric range, built-in microwave, and dishwasher—complement the white tile backsplash and light countertops. Under-cabinet lighting adds a refined touch, while a matte black faucet over a single-basin sink introduces a subtle contrast. Recessed lighting illuminates both floors throughout. A staircase connects to the upper level, where a bright, open room benefits from large floor-to-ceiling windows fitted with roller shades, inviting generous natural light. The bathroom features large-format travertine-style floor and wall tiles surrounding a soaking tub with a showerhead, accented by dark oil-rubbed bronze fixtures for an elevated, spa-like feel. The overall design is minimal and contemporary.

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.
