From the moment you arrive, its classic architecture and a welcoming presence set the tone for what lies within. Inside, an elegant French door opens to a gracious foyer that introduces a highly livable, open layout. To the left, a spacious living room features a wood burning fireplace and an adjoining sunroom-- an ideal retreat filled with natural light. To the right, French doors lead to a formal dining room, creating a seamless flow for both everyday living and entertaining. Beyond, the thoughtful and beautifully updated kitchen features granite countertops, a central island, chef quality stainless steel appliances, and a built-in desk with shelving. A spacious family room sits just off the kitchen, while a conveniently located half bath lies at the center of the home. A secondary staircase from the kitchen provides additional access to the second level, complementing the main foyer staircase. The home is further enhanced by elegant detailed moldings and abundant natural light throughout. The second floor offers flexibility and space with five generously sized bedrooms. The primary suite includes an adjoining bedroom, perfect for a nursery or home office, along with an updated bathroom featuring a floor-to-ceiling tiled shower with glass doors.
