On the main floor, the expansive living room complete with wood-burning, marble fireplace flows into a formal dining room lit by leaded glass windows. The tastefully remodeled kitchen opens to a sun-filled family room overlooking the lush backyard. Upstairs, 5 bedrooms and 2 full, renovated bathrooms are located on the second and third floor, while the first floor has its own brand new half bath. This elegant home has hardwood floors throughout, with new oak floors on the first level. Double pane windows add to the comfort of living in this unique property. In the home's serene backyard, you may find refuge in its quietude, as well as an expansive space to entertain and play. There is even room enough for a vegetable garden! This home is the perfect unity of modern and vintage at its best.
