Notice the attractive layout of the first floor draws you into its vast interior, where you can peer through the living room, dining room, solarium/family room and up the curved newel post hardwood staircase from the entry vantage point. A vintage powder room with window and white ceramic tile is located on the first level at the far end of the hall, as well as an ample coat closet. Both feature solid dark wood doors accented by fine cut glass door knobs, which speak to the sophistication of the home.

Across the room is a classic wood-burning fireplace with a brick surround and mantle for you to enjoy the warmth of a fire during the fall and winter months. The living room features two French doors, where you can step out onto the spacious open porch framed by the five tall graceful arches on the home's south, north and east exposure.

A double window provides light over the extended counter space making it easy to prepare meals. The swinging door separating the kitchen provides privacy, and the location of the kitchen makes it easy to formally serve guests directly in the dining room. An extension to the left of the kitchen acts as a family room/solarium and is surrounded by ten floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the rear yard. A beautiful ceramic tiled wall bench is situated in the corner of the room where you can relax and bask in the warm glow of afternoon sunshine enjoying a view of the grounds or watching television. A windowed door leads directly from the solarium outside onto a flagstone patio settled beneath a captivating wood arbor.

The rear yard is fully-fenced and features mature plantings that provide natural privacy. The family room offers maximum sunlight indoors during cold winter months and invites you to step outside and enjoy the backdrop of seasonal change the rest of the year.
