This home has all the features you would expect in a classic 2-story Colonial. From the hardwood floors and glass panel French doors between the living and dining rooms to the solid oak trim (mostly unpainted) to the screened side porch and built-in bookcase and china cabinet, this home speaks of an era of superior materials and workmanship. Through the years, updates have been made to the areas that matter the most--the kitchen, bath and lighting. If you love period homes and have always wanted the perfect spot for family heirlooms entrusted to you, stop by for a visit. Potwin Court and the adjacent Potwin neighborhood are known for their holiday celebrations, unique architecture and sense of community. You just might find your new happy place here.
