On top of formal living and dining spaces, the first floor includes an expansive one-of-a kind mid-century-esque family room boasting exposed beams, built-in grill-included kitchenette, an original stone accent wall, and both floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding-glass doors leading to the freshly painted deck.

This level also incorporates a dine-in kitchen and powder room. The 2nd floor includes a large primary en-suite bedroom as well as two graciously sized additional bedrooms which share the hall bath. The 3rd floor includes an expansive alternate-primary bedroom complete with a reading nook, updated walk-in AND cedar closets, as well as a private updated bathroom.
