Next, the dining area also has an exposed brick accent and its own window above a built-in bar. The one-wall kitchen has stainless steel appliances and an electric stove beneath a hood, and enjoys natural light from a pair of doors with paneled glass beneath a row of clerestory windows. On the skylit upstairs landing, a barn door conceals the washer/dryer. There is also a rear slate patio surrounded by horizontal wood fencing.
