A welcoming foyer opens to the living and dining areas with fireplace, cathedral ceilings, and clerestory windows, a sun-lit master bedroom and bath, a greenhouse room, and a cheerful lemon kitchen. On the lower level is generous space for guests and family activities including two additional bedrooms, full bath, family room and office with sliding glass doors to the sprawling wood decks and natural landscape beyond.
