Built in 1904, this year-round historic island home takes you back to an era of quality and rich architectural details. It has original wainscoting, stunning coffered ceilings, a built-in china closet and period light fixtures. The updated kitchen blends in well with slate countertops and sink, tile flooring and ample storage. The original Arts and Crafts brick fireplace has a distinctive fieldstone insert and wood stove. The accessible attic is fully insulated. The basement is, too, with a vapor barrier, on-demand hot water heater and newer furnace. In addition, there are 3 heat pumps for economical heating and cooling. The windows have been replaced. The deck is spacious and private, the covered porch perfect for the hammock or comfy wicker chairs. A combination of historic and modern, it is a delight and very easy to show.
