The gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight, overlooking the spacious living room with stunning white shaker cabinets featuring soft-close technology. Enjoy cooking and entertaining with the expansive quartz countertops, generous island with breakfast bar, and an extra-large built-in pantry. All appliances are newer (2023). The primary bedroom suite offers a private retreat, separated from other bedrooms for maximum tranquility. Unwind in your renovated ensuite bathroom featuring a beautiful tile shower, and enjoy the convenience of a large walk-in closet.
