This lovely home is set on a private, wooded acre with thoughtful landscape and plantings on a small cul-de-sac. Cooks kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, lovely granite counters, and a picture window is adjacent to the eating space and family room with soaring ceilings and windows all around looking out onto the beautiful yard.
