About this House

Cozy and inviting is the best way to describe this village style colonial. Living room, dining room, eat in kitchen and office on the first floor with the three bedrooms and laundry on the second level is more room that you might think from the outside view. From the wrap around front porch to the wide plank wood floors, wood/gas stoves and then on to the hot tub off the rear deck.... you will be pleasantly surprised at just how much space this home has to offer. The perennial gardens will soon be in full blossom all around the house for your seasonal enjoyment. A cobblestone patio is a wonderful space for entertaining. A great property for someone with an appreciation for the workmanship and charm of days gone by. The antique stove in the kitchen is both gas and wood fired with double ovens. The living room also has a wood burning stove that could also fire with coal if you like. The possibilities are endless !
