The formal living room showcases high ceilings and is warmed by a gas fireplace framed by a period mantle surround. The living room is open to the dining room and the updated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless appliances. The large family room with built-ins and a second gas fireplace boasts windows on two sides which flood the family room with afternoon sun. A powder room is conveniently tucked away off the main floor hall. The original banister and balustrades on the large staircase draw your eyes to the period built-ins on the staircase landing.
