The open floor plan carries you into the dining and kitchen areas where you’ll first find a formal dining room table with seating for 8. Continue on to the cheerful kitchen with colorful coral cabinetry, fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, Keurig coffee maker, and full suite of all the cookware and dining ware you need to achieve your culinary aspirations. The kitchen counter offers additional high-top seating for 4 to assist with meal prep or for enjoying a peaceful cup of morning coffee.
