Imagine spending summer days basking in the sun or hosting memorable gatherings for BBQ, board games or book group…it’s your call! A blend of traditional & contemporary elements, the renovated spaces feature high ceilings, custom millwork, oak hardwood flooring, & well-proportioned rooms. Classic LR & formal DR anchor the front of the house & lead to gourmet kitchen - a chef's dream, equipped w/top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, new quartz countertops, & a butler’s pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area has views of the yard & leads to the FR w/fieldstone fireplace & French doors to patio.
