The cozy kitchen is functional but could really shine with renovations that brought out the full potential of the space. There is a large walk-in pantry and dining room off of the kitchen. There is access to stairs leading to a second level that is used as storage currently, this could potentially be converted to additional living space with a proper staircase and remodel (not counted in sq footage).
