Property description
This lovely Victorian home has been updated yet maintains much of its original charm through its woodwork, beautiful fireplace and hardwood floors. With spacious rooms, plenty of light, and a flexible floor plan to accommodate any lifestyle, this home is a gem. Through a thoughtful renovation process the house was expanded to create a larger kitchen and space for breakfast /family area and new infrastructure. The classic eat in kitchen with solid wood custom cabinetry, high end fixtures and appliances blends seamlessly with the rest of the house utilizing extensive molding, a large window line and classic glass front cabinetry. From here one can view the back yard complete with blue stone patio and professionally landscaped perennial beds. Or enjoy the screened in porch which can be accessed from both the kitchen and dining room.
