About This Home

As of January 2018

This gorgeous house is everything. And the location is so good you might cry. If houses have personalities this one would be your best friend. Every room is spacious, sunny & just makes you feel good. Beamed ceilings & an inviting FP are the living room's focal points. Architecturally interesting windows drench the sunroom with natural light. Super sized dining room makes hosting holidays a breeze. Chef's kitchen, with its large center island overlooking the family room, truly is the heart of the house. In the good weather throw open the french doors in the family room and make the massive patio and secluded yard part of your living space. En-suite master and 3 more bds complete the 2nd fl. 3 bds with 3rd full bth on 3rd fl. Walnut St with A+ dining, farmer's market, great shopping & NYC train a block away.
