Enter the driveway, adorned by columns, as you head into a spacious courtyard. The inviting covered porch with two sitting areas that flank the gorgeous 8 ft oak front door that welcomes you into the home.

The foyer is flanked by a spacious dining room and living room with a two-way gas fireplace. Located just beyond the living room is a relaxing sunroom/family room with French doors that provide access to one of the covered porch areas. Tucked away beyond the living room and family room is a wonderful pub room/flex space, complete with a bar area with beer tap where you can enjoy the other side of the two-way fireplace that is shared with the living room. This room is also a great space for a home office/study.
