We renovated the home (new kitchen, baths, floors, windows, etc) with attention to historic detail-- exposed original woodwork and 1915 stenciling. Bright, airy, happy space with big windows and top-down blinds that create a tree-house effect all year round. Currently configured as 5 bedrooms and 2 office/guest rooms, but can be reconfigured to make more/fewer bedrooms or offices. Antiques, granite counters, tumbled marble tiles, hardwood floors (heart pine, oak, bamboo, maple). Lots of closet space and kitchen/dining room cabinets/storage. Huge deck with grill, front porch, big yard (greater than one half acre), great home for dinner and backyard parties. New driveway of cobblestone and white stone provides convenient parking.
