The expansive & sophisticated living & dining rooms are classic! Notice the huge front window, complete w/ window seat, & room enough for a baby grand piano! The wide archway to the formal DR is large enough for furniture of any size. The stunning brass chandelier w/ pineapple cut glass ( a symbol of 'home'), and it's companion piece in the stairway are so unique! Some amenities of the well-designed eat-in kitchen are these: wine rack, lazy susan for trash & recycle, pull out cutting board & pantry drawers, black & stainless appliances (including a huge side-by-side fridge w/ ice maker), dw, new gas stove w/ 4 burners & griddle, marble-look counter tops, white thumb print tile back splash , hickory cabinetry, padded wood-look flooring, microwave, CF & a peninsula w/ 2 chairs that separates the work area from a space for a good-sized table.

The owner's bath comes w/ grey marble flooring, white tile walls, linen closet, modern vanity sink, a step-in shower w/ corner seat & a rainshower head. BR #2 boasts 2 single closets.

The hallway cedar closet w/ double rods is a nice bonus. A few more steps down lead to the lowest level to find an all-purpose room w/ BB heat. It's an office now, but could be a playroom or exercise room. A grate on the wall opens for access to an expansive, clean and neat crawl space w/ sealed cement flooring, a dehumidifier & a moisture barrier. A very deep closet in the bonus room houses tons of shelving. The Whirlpool washer (new) and dryer(newer) are a plus. The laundry tub and fixtures are new as well.
