The kitchen showcases matching custom cabinetry, quartz countertops throughout, and an impressive 9’ x 4’ center island that provides ample workspace and gathering space. Storage was a priority in the design, with large cabinets, oversized closets, and a walk-in pantry featuring a stylish barn door. Additional interior features include luxury vinyl flooring throughout the entire home, plantation shutters, a soundproofed laundry room, custom-built cabinetry throughout the entire home and a whole-house water treatment system. The home also features an oversized garage with two pedestrian doors, offering added convenience, accessibility, and plenty of space.
