Very low maintenance too! A lovely front yard and a private entrance leads to a home that was reconfigured and gut renovated in 2014 with extreme care and thoughtful planning. The list of custom curated new elements is too long and is available upon request. The most striking improvement is the opening of the kitchen to the living room, creating a larger living space with access and views to the huge outdoor area with a covered patio, room for a grill and a new lush landscaped garden. The covered patio feels like an additional room. Integrated home office desk and cabinets The new kitchen has Calacatta marble island, countertops and backsplash.
