Inside, a gracious center hall layout opens to expansive yet comfortable living spaces. The front-to-back living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and flows seamlessly to the outdoor entertaining areas. The formal dining room features classic millwork and updated lighting, ideal for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The kitchen, redesigned as part of a recent renovation, spans the rear of the home and is both functional and inviting. A skylit breakfast area overlooks the expansive backyard, while updated cabinetry, appliances, lighting, and generous prep space make it a true hub of the home.
