Lovely wide stone steps welcome guests to this amazing Dutch Colonial. A warm chestnut door matches the built-ins and woodwork that is the focal point of the interior decor. Upon entering the open center hall, visitors are greeted by a sense of both space and light. They can see a sun room past the large living room on the left and a multi-windowed dining room graced by a lovely chandelier on the right. Matching bay windows flanking the stone steps add elegance to the exterior while drawing attention to the bright spaciousness of the main floor. Through the dining room rear door awaits a surprise to delight any guest or homeowner. The Dutch theme is carried out in a new white L-shap Kitchen with blue tiles from Holland and gold accents. It is difficult to say which is more wonderful the great windows and counter space or the cabinetry and drawers. The home is full of precious extras such as the window seats, a central vac system, and an intercom with CD and radio. The home comes with a one year waranty.
