The living roomadjoins the dining room which has access to an enclosed porch, perfectly suited as a cozy den to enjoy the mountain views or a quiet work-from-home office. Also adjacent to the dining room is a butler's pantry!

The kitchen has been recently updated including a single-basin stainless steel sink, stainless-steel appliances, a walk-in pantry and an adjoining laundry room.
