Property description
Remodeled and reconfigured main floor, filled with light and open spaces. Electrical, plumbing, roof, sewer, furnace all updated or replaced. In addition, over $200K of work in recent months. All-new kitchen completely open to full-sized dining room; open breakfast area in turn flows to bright and spacious living room. Little feet may now run around the entire main level without ever passing through a single conventional doorway. Upstairs, a classic four-square layout surrounds a glorious atrium-like stairwell, showered with natural light from a super-sized skylight above. The main stair landing is large enough to accommodate an open home office or play area. Outside the windows, towering oaks trees rustle their leaves; an inviting swing hangs from one massive limb. Backyard includes a delightful custom playhouse.
