A sunny living room with a wood-burning fireplace and built-ins overlooks the formal dining room.  Enjoy meals in the dining room that flows out the double french doors to the lovely brick patio with a pergola, perfect for entertaining inside and out! Just off the dining room is the perfect sunroom, where you can enjoy morning coffee year-round. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, and an island peninsula for extra prep space and storage. Walk upstairs to 3 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom with unique sink fixtures, and great closet storage in the hallway. As you continue up one more level, you'll find the spacious primary retreat, completely renovated in 2015! This primary bedroom features an Elfa-outfitted walk-in closet, and large en-suite bathroom featuring double pedestal sinks and a large shower, and finished gable storage space. The lower level is a wide open space complete with a full bathroom and a laundry room. This large recreation room can be used as a guest space or extra living room, perfect for movie nights! Don't miss the Elfa closets to maximize storage in this spacious level.
