The grandly scaled living room with wood-burning fireplace and built-in shelves flows seamlessly into the formal dining room. Both rooms have access to the scene-stealing screened-in sun porch with skylight and easy access to the side yard. The eat-in kitchen was updated in 2008 and boasts plenty of counter space to complement the upper and lower cabinets. From the kitchen you can access the 2-car attached garage via the breezeway. There is a first floor bonus room that can be used as a family room, 4th bedroom or office with a full hall bath, rounding out the impressive first floor. The second floor offers three bedrooms, including a light-filled and spacious primary suite with two walk-in closets and a large private bath with separate water closet. Two nicely scaled hallway bedrooms share a hall bath. The lower level, with paneled walls and 7' ceiling height, includes a large recreation room, a wall of storage closets and a utility room with laundry. This very special home awaits its next owner to bring their own vision and to start creating the next generation of memories here.
