Step inside and fall in love with over 1600 sq ft of character and charm that you simply won’t find in modern construction. From the moment you enter the cozy enclosed front porch, you’ll notice the stunning woodwork — doors, trim, moldings, staircase, and built-ins — all perfectly accented by modern paint colors and updated flooring. The spacious living room features a decorative stone fireplace and opens into a sun-filled formal dining room with three large windows. The kitchen offers modern gray cabinetry, a picture-perfect window over the sink, a walk-in pantry, and a convenient main floor half bath.
