The stone lined walls serve as the heart of the home, anchoring light-filled living spaces framed by expansive windows and lush oak canopies. The modernized kitchen pairs clean lines with organic textures, creating a refined yet livable feel that honors the home’s architectural roots. Step outside to enjoy multiple outdoor living areas surrounded by mature trees and layered green views.
