The entry foyer features a lovely staircase with original handrail plus so much more.There are two primary bedrooms(one up and one down) with the luxury of modern bathrooms plus a third big bedroom and a third bathroom. The kitchen and baths have all been updated. The house features a large entertaining dining area with one of the fireplaces as it's focal point. The living room is spacious with another of the fireplaces..A room to the back of the house is considered a ''flex'' room... presently a laundry and extra family space which also features one of the fireplaces in the house. Outside is the colonial style front porch with. the grand columns flanking the front door entry. There is a large 1 acre yard with plenty of room for a garden and chickens. No known restrictions at this country location. The above ground pool is in the backyard for a quick cool down in the summer. This can be your
