Stay awhile enjoying the view from the front porch complete with a swing! Notice the lovely leaded glass details on the transom windows and the sidelights surrounding the front door. The stucco on this home is very unique. Welcome into the spacious living room filled with stunning features that extend throughout the main level - 11" wide oak plank floors, chair rail, crown molding and beadboard, tongue and groove wood ceilings, plaster walls, extensive period woodwork and original solid wood doors with glass knobs.

This spacious area lovingly designed to marry turn of the 20 century with modern, embraces the best of both worlds. Vaulted beamed ceilings with custom lighting and a chandelier over the island add warmth to the space with large windows and stained wood paneled walls. Painted recessed panel cabinetry provide plenty of storage while easy to maintain Corian counters allow ample prep space. There is an island with breakfast bar, an oversized black porcelain farmhouse sink with sprayer under a window overlooking the yard. All stainless steel appliances - Bosch dishwasher, Whirlpool refrigerator, countertop microwave and Imperial commercial propane range with raised griddle and broiler. The kitchen has a pie safe on the wall, just beautiful.
