The brickwork continues up through an opening to the loft. An abundance of canister lights accent the great room.

A peninsula countertop divides the kitchen from the great room and creates a breakfast bar setting. Stack-stone accents the breakfast bar and part of the kitchen, which has white cabinetry and granite countertops. A sink is below a window with a coffee station.

The kitchen comes equipped with wall ovens, a cooktop, dishwasher and refrigerator. There is also a double-door pantry.
