The wide, deep front porch invites you to enter the roomy, functional foyer and appreciate the home’s soaring ceilings, beautiful hardwood flooring, sunlit spaces and art-glass windows. Gather with loved ones in the generous, sun-soaked living room with bright, tall bay windows and easily host your biggest holiday gatherings in the large, bright dining room. Through a charming pocket door is the generous first-floor family room where you can rendezvous with friends for game night or cozy up for a movie night. Cooking your gourmet meals or snack prep is a delight in the sunny, all-stainless, five-years new designer kitchen boasting classic, bright, high-quality cabinetry; solid-stone countertops; an extra-deep stainless farmhouse sink; beautiful tiled backsplash; external venting hood; redone maple hardwood floors, and so much more. The kitchen opens to a fabulous, sun-filled breakfast room with large windows and a built-in mudroom bench with storage for a convenient back-door drop zone.

Two additional generous bedrooms are on this level, one with a tandem room (currently used as a study) filled with windows and a cedar closet; and the other sunny east-facing bedroom, which is any kid’s dream! A fresh hallway family bath completes this level. Up the wide stairs to the third floor, you’ll find another massive bedroom plus a huge space that’s currently an exercise and storage area, but could also be additional living space down the road.

Laundry, mechanicals, and additional storage complete this level.
