The exterior has loads of vintage Craftsman cottage appeal complemented by multiple roof lines, a curated mature garden and a wide front sitting porch, while the interior is a blend of early 20th century architectural details w/thoughtful 21st century additions and conveniences. Original details include hardwood floors, a box beam DR ceiling, Douglas fir door and window trim, built-in bookcases, a china cabinet/sideboard and an impressive brick/stone fireplace with wood stove insert.
