An archway in the living room peek-a-boos into the gourmet kitchen fit for a king. Custom soft closing wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, gorgeous tile, top of the line appliances, farm sink, a door to the side driveway, and laundry closet. Beyond the kitchen is the first guest bedroom ideal for the in-laws with en suite bath with tub and shower. Off the dining room is the family room perfect for movie/game night with French doors that lead out to the back patio for al fresco dining under the stars. Off the foyer is a lovely powder room with skylight and a the second guest bedroom/office with lots if storage.

    "Even though people are good about picking up their dogs’ poo, not everyone is a responsible dog owner. I rarely ever see any leash-less dogs. However, some people claim their dogs are service dogs when they’re out of control. Most places here do not like big dogs in the complexes. "

    "This is an absolute amazing neighborhood! It is not the type where your neighbors stay inside all day and never come out, or the type who are always nosy. It is perfect! At night there is no parties going on until like 3:00 or anything! It is quiet and nice, in the morning the birds are tweeting and you see people walking their dogs, biking, or just jogging! I totally recommend this neighborhood!"
