The living room is large and inviting with custom built-ins painted in a graceful & chic shade of soft green and a wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cozy evenings. Adjacent to the kitchen, a formal dining room, adorned with built-in corner cabinets, large enough for holiday gatherings or casual summer meals with friends. The centrally located eat-in kitchen, with sliding doors out to the huge backyard seamlessly blends indoor & outdoor living.

One of the 2nd floor bedrooms has a ROOM-SIZE closet that is currently set up as a secret playroom, a fun little hideaway space for toys, sleepovers and late night ghost stories. The lower level features a handsome rec room with a wood-burning fireplace & rich paneled walls, a large laundry room, and plenty of unfinished storage. This home effortlessly combines a whimsical country feel and the convenience of being minutes away from shopping, restaurants, and freeways.
