When you enter this home, the foyer leads you to a spacious, light-filled living room with timeless, elegant features like the wood beam ceiling, built-in bookcase, coat closet, hard wood floors and an exquisite crested stone wood-burning fireplace. From the living room, walk directly through the French door onto the covered flagstone porch used throughout the year. To the left of the living room is the formal dining room, with doors leading to a Butlers pantry and into the eat-in kitchen, the perfect place to host all your grand holiday parties.
