The living room is the perfect room to gather with family and offers a cozy wood burning fireplace with mantle. The dining room has a beautiful bay window which exudes an abundance of natural light. Conveniently, both the Living Room and Dining Room both have access to the kitchen, which gives this home an updated floor plan with great flow for entertaining.
