Upon entering the gracious, double-door entry, you are greeted with expansive and incredibly peaceful views. A beautifully remodeled kitchen with generous seating area flows seamlessly into dining and living spaces and out to the deck through two sets of sliding doors. A sunken living room, with vaulted ceiling and dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace, is ideal for entertaining or simply relaxing.
