Its interior is much larger than it appears from the exterior. The fireplaced living room has an arched opening to the dining room with corner cupboard. The applianced kitchen has tiled countertops and a door to the back yard. Also on the first floor is a front bedroom, full hall bath with tiled shower/tub and a second bedroom or den. In 1991, the second floor was finished as a master bedroom, a twin bedroom and a full hall bath with a wealth of storage closets as well as under eaves storage. There are oak floors throughout. Off the mudroom that connects the garage and its work bench are French doors leading to a screened porch accessing a patio. Both are most private and view the landscaped backyard with small gardening shed. Full basement has the laundry and room for hobbies. A rare opportunity to live in this highly coveted location.
