(He later designed Duncan Memorial Chapel). This fabulous home reminds us of Colonial Virginia & it should as the clients who built it, scavenged rim locks, antique mantles, spectacular chestnut and ash flooring from there. Enter through the front double doors into the graciously large central hall/foyer. The large living room to the right features one of the antique reeded mantels and built in bookshelves. From the living room or foyer, one can relax in the enclosed sunroom, and enjoy the wonderful privacy afforded by the grounds. The dining room to the left of the foyer has a corner fireplace with a sunburst mantel & connects to the rear hall with half bath, breakfast room, kitchen and back hall. The rear staircase leads to the 2.5 car garage (connecting to a wonderful storage room) & a cozy bedroom suite with fireplace above. The second floor master bedroom has a fireplace with yet another stunning reeded mantel. Two additional spacious bedrooms, full bath & an office complete the 2nd floor. The basement is tidy and has good storage space with a small workshop and full bath.
