This home's ample kitchen allows for multiple cooks. It has all new stainless steel appliances, Corian countertops, abundant Thomasville cherry cabinetry throughout, and a just-installed tile backsplash that beautifully compliments the cabinetry's wood. The spacious L-shaped living area has an alcove with a window that can serve as a dining room or easily be walled off to create an office or second bedroom. Newly installed wooden baseboards throughout and beadboard trim enhance the warmth and character of the home. Luxuriate in the renovated bathroom that includes a stunning new marble tile floor, new sink vanity, a three-door Kohler medicine cabinet, and new lighting. The tranquil bedroom offers California closets, and the mirrored closet doors enlarge the already airy sleeping quarters. This unit has two essential features that will save the owner a significant amount on their monthly utilities-forced air heating with a programmable thermostat (as opposed to baseboard) and a tankless water heater (as opposed to a space-consuming, less economical tank).
