The layout begins with a welcoming foyer showcasing the original baluster and banister, which opens into spacious living, dining rooms as well as the rear breezeway.

The updated kitchen includes tile floors, stainless steel appliances, solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a tile backsplash, a cozy eat-in area, and yet another fireplace. A charming breezeway connects the kitchen to the dining room, which also features heart pine flooring, a fireplace, and ceiling fan. Step outside to a private, fully fenced backyard with a rear deck, arbor, and brick paver patio with the detached kitchen on the street side it gives a great amount of privacy!
