The large, well stocked eat-in kitchen has both a dining table and an island, a double oven, four burner stovetop, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, kid's dishes and dishwasher. Whether you are an avid cook or prefer to throw something on the grill, you will find everything you need.

The comfortable, vaulted ceiling family room has a Smart TV and is stocked with games and books for adults and kids, and has plenty of room to relax. Large windows and sliding glass doors allow the sun to pour in, and provides views of the variety of birds that love the birdbaths and trees that surround the house.

You will want to spend a lot of time on the large deck which is a great place to read a book, have cocktails or a serve a meal. In addition to patio furniture, there is a built-in picnic table that seats 10 and a gas grill. The deck overlooks a beautiful yard with gardens, a Koi pond, a big grassy area to play games on, and our own wiffle ball field. We have cornhole, bocce and other yard games available.
