Enter the foyer & you'll first notice the high ceilings, heated floors, & updated windows with custom wooden shutters. The open concept kitchen and dining room boast dramatic black cabinets, granite countertops, and double doors opening onto a deck. A living room w/gas-fireplace, & a half bath complete the main living area. Upstairs there's a full bathroom, primary bedroom, & two additional bedrooms.
