Upon entering this renovated 1870's home, sunlight fills the living room from transoms and large windows atop a long solid oak window seat.

Both rooms have newer engineered hardwood flooring.

It is adjoined by a convenient home office area and access to the back yard.

The second floor has two generously sized bedrooms and a freshly painted full bath with linen closet that opens to the main bedroom and the hallway.
