Mud room, with historic cabinet, is the perfect place for boots, coats and pet supplies, as you come in from your gardeners delight yard. Lovely kitchen was remodeled keeping the charm of yesteryear with the newer appliances of today. Beamed ceiling, exposed brick wall and large porcelain sink combine with a gas range for the serious chefs. Dining room and living room combine with a large cased opening for that “open feel”. Deep windowsills and wood floors provide charm and elegance. Family room, in the newer portion of the house, has lovely hand sanded wood floors and amazing views of the back yard. First floor bedroom, with a large closet, is used by the current owners as the primary bedroom.
