Spacious formal dining room is at the heart of the home and could be used as additional lounging or office space, depending on your needs. Your eyes will be drawn to the wood shiplap ceiling in the lovely kitchen and is completed with appliances, built-in shelving and the "must have" window above the sink! French door leads to side entry and unfinished basement. Down the hallway are 2 bedrooms and a full bath with pedestal sink, ceramic tile and a linen closet for all your storage needs.
