Hillcrest Four-Bedroom Gone in Four Days

An updated chef’s kitchen with subway-tiled backsplash and farmhouse sink opens onto a rear patio that overlooks a landscaped yard with fire pit. However, the house also stands out because of its sustainability, boasting an array of solar panels as well as rain cisterns and compost bins.
