In the cooler months, the gas fireplace provides a cozy ambiance for sharing stories and casual conversation. The modern, eat-in kitchen is a chef’s dream, with professional appliances, stone countertops, and crisp white cabinetry stocked with cookware and dining ware. Enjoy breakfast or light meals at the table with seating for 6, overlooking the pool and patio. Formal meals can be taken in the foyer while seated at the sophisticated dining table with room for 8.
