Bold new windows light the interior while leaving the texture & dimension of the exterior undisturbed. The dramatic front door is enhanced with natural wood trim. Then step into an ample front entryway with a power room, guest closet & basement stairs. The wall of windows & French doors is a welcoming invitation to the front to back living room w/fpl & adjacent dining room. The open floor plan then leads to a recently renovated cook's kitchen with marble countertops & stainless steel appliances. Tucked away off the kitchen is a library/office or guest room.. A custom designer chrome & oak stairway leads to the 2nd fl. The large, bright primary suite has ample closet space & luxurious new bath with walk-in shower & soaking tub. A hallway separates the 2 additional corner bedrooms & new bath. The basement has been recently finished to incorporate a gym, play area, powder room & storage.
