You will love the open floor plan! Spend relaxing evenings in the living room with a 65-inch smart TV. Be sure to check out the chef's dream kitchen, which is fully stocked, including cookware, crockpot, griddle, etc. The Coffee Bar has 2 types of coffee makers - Keurig for one or brew up a whole pot for the entire family.
