back deck. The kitchen is truly the heart of this delightful
home. The center island has lots of sitting space for informal
meals, the high-end appliances are stainless steel and built
in, including two wall-mounted ovens, microwave and toaster
oven. The custom-built cherry cabinetry provides a wealth of
storage space including an ingenious pantry, wine rack and open
