This flexible floor plan can be utilized in many ways and accommodates seating, dining and work areas. The spacious primary bedroom and en-suite bathroom are the perfect retreat. The secondary bedroom is also generously proportioned and has an adjacent bathroom. Both bedrooms have large closets and face west with excellent light throughout the day. The kitchen features modern white cabinets, generous counter space, tiled backsplash and shelving for extra storage. With board approval, one can open the kitchen into the living room.
