This single-floor space offers a functional and versatile layout spread across several interconnected rooms. Throughout the unit, speckled terrazzo flooring provides a durable and cohesive foundation, while drop ceilings with acoustic tiles define the overhead plane in most areas. A notable architectural contrast appears in the main open area, where an ornate ceiling medallion and a multi-arm chandelier add a decorative focal point above the otherwise utilitarian finishes. The main open area is generously proportioned, with a glazed double-door entry featuring frosted glass panels that allow light to filter into the space. Dark wood door frames and trim provide visual contrast against the white walls throughout. Several additional rooms branch off from the central area, each similarly finished with white walls and terrazzo floors. Two of the rooms benefit from windows that bring in natural light. The kitchen is equipped with dark red cabinetry, a double stainless steel sink, a gas range, and a full-size refrigerator, with a small window above the counter. The bathroom includes a toilet, a wall-mounted sink, a wood storage cabinet, and a medicine cabinet with mirror. The space presents a solid canvas suitable for a variety of uses.

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.
