The gorgeous fieldstone expansive covered front porch leads you to the classic dutch door entry surrounded by original leaded glass. The minute you walk in you will notice the light, bright open floor plan. Large formal dining room to your left opens to the absolutely stunning kitchen. The kitchen is loaded with timeless cabinets, classic white stone counters and all stainless appliances. The center island is thoughtfully designed with complimenting grey cabinetry with great storage and an overhang "breakfast bar" for casual meals. Enter into the most elegant Living room with coffered ceilings, an outstanding fieldstone fireplace and French doors (with a stained glass transom window above )that leads to a rear stone patio. Beautiful 1/2 bath completes the main floor. The second floor is a real wow! At the top of the beautiful original staircase you come to a 12x10 sitting room which could also be used as a home office space. The bedrooms are all a good size and one even has a fireplace. The full bath in the hall has been elegantly renovated with classic white marble. The master suite was created from 2 bedrooms, it features a huge walk in closet and a stunning oversized full marble bathroom with beveled tiled walls and mosaic floor. Double vanities and a frameless glass rain shower.

    "Playgrounds at the elementary schools are available to the public after school lets out, Manjare's Bistro (West Rock Ave) is a great place to take kids for breakfast or lunch. Trick-or-treating is so great in the neighborhood that the neighborhood is a bit of a victim of it's own success, that people make it a destination neighborhood for Halloween. "
