Let the kids have their own area upstairs, where they can play games and hang out while the adults kick back in the living room, perhaps enjoying some cocktails after dinner.

Speaking of dinner, you’ll enjoy cooking meals for the family in a kitchen well-equipped for entertaining. You have many options for relaxation and conversation no matter where you are in this home.
