This inviting space has been tastefully embellished with custom drapes, crown molding, and tone-on-tone trellis patterned carpet that is carried throughout much of the interior. At the center of the home is the updated, eat-in kitchen where off-white, raised-panel cabinets are paired with ivory, Corian countertops and creamy, wide-plank flooring. The linear mosaic tile backsplash adds a pop of color and dimension to stylishly contrast the uniform color scheme of the kitchen workspace. Directly off the kitchen is the family room addition.
