Gather in the living room by the fireplace, enjoy meals in the sunny kitchen with stainless appliances, or step out to the enclosed porch that overlooks a patio and fenced yard. A fieldstone front porch framed by blooming perennial landscaping, beautiful hardwood throughout, post-and-beam shed with power, and extras like hardwired detectors and a generator hookup (generator included) complete the package.  Upstairs you’ll find comfortable bedrooms, each with generous walk-in closets and a remodeled full bath, while the partially finished lower level adds a second bath, laundry, and bonus space that walks directly out to the backyard.
