About This Home

As of October 2013

Quiet but not secluded on three serene and partially fenced acres, this character-filled house is certain to surprise with its unexpected size that unfolds from room upon enchanting room. Enter either via the side porch near the garage or through the front door near a generous parking court. Regardless, the interior is filled with pleasing built-ins, arched doorways, two fireplaces, wood flooring and four full bathrooms! All three bedrooms are en suite, including the main level master with an adjoining glass conservatory, dressing room with walk-in closet, duel shoe closets and a lovely bathroom. The living room has a glass wall and looks onto the garden and is near the dining room with French doors that spill outside. An office and library are equally cozy and the eat-in kitchen affords plenty of prep space. The garage has an expansive attic room to hide the holiday decor and a wine closet. You'll be charmed by this one!
