At the center of the home, the spacious family room features a vaulted ceiling and gas fireplace. The adjoining kitchen is designed for serious cooking and effortless entertaining, with recently refinished dark cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, an island with gas cooktop, two wall ovens and abundant storage.
