The elegant foyer leads to a front-to-back living room with a large fireplace, built-in lit bookcases, and French doors out to the yard; a dining room with pretty molding; and an updated eat-in kitchen with center island and breakfast area. Additional features include a large office, wood-paneled family room, temperature-controlled wine room, solar panels, an attic with good ceiling height, and a basement with a fireplace, bedroom, and semi-finished space. The beautifully manicured grounds provide a wonderful setting complete with an enclosed side yard with a lovely, covered brick patio and well-established perennial garden. There is a two-car garage.
