The main floor is anchored by a custom eat-in kitchen. Two large living rooms, a dining room with with fireplace and a sun room with floor to ceiling windows complete the layout. Entertaining, both indoors and out, is easily accomplished via the multilevel decks. The second floor is appointed with three bedrooms, an office and laundry. A second, larger laundry room is located on the lower level. The primary bedroom including the sitting room, walk-in closet, en suite bath and terrace is comprised of over 550 square feet. The spacious primary bathroom is luxuriously equipped with heated floors, deep claw foot soaker tub and dual sinks creating a relaxing retreat. Accessing the second and third levels, one admires the ornate mill work of the custom staircase enhanced by the beauty of the stained glass windows at its landing.
