Step through the inviting front door into a spacious foyer accented by elegant wooden moulding and trim—a graceful introduction to the home’s classic character. Just off the foyer, the formal living room opens to a versatile family room (ideal as a playroom or home office) and connects effortlessly to the dining room for easy entertaining. The formal dining room flaunts hardwood floors, chair rail, a ceiling fan and leads directly to the kitchen. The updated kitchen comes complete with granite countertops, gas cooking, and a tile backsplash. A door from the kitchen leads to the sizable back yard.
