The open concept layout leads to a formal dining area complete with decorative mantle, three windows, and a stained glass light fixture, creating the perfect setting for intimate gatherings and festive celebrations. Original oak hardwood floors add timeless beauty and enduring appeal. The large eat-in kitchen features a unique arched shelving nook, gas range, stainless steel refrigerator, microwave, new garbage disposal (June 2025), and additional outlets for your many appliances (June 2025).
