Through the front door, step into the home’s formal entryway. To the right, a glass-paned door opens into the living room. Centered around a grand fireplace, the light-filled space features rich green trims, ochre walls, and hardwood floors that create a comfortable setting for gathering. At the far end of the living room, a set of French doors opens to a sunroom with oversized windows, terracotta flooring, and a classic red brick fireplace.

The home’s cozy living room features ample natural light, a large wood-burning fireplace, and thoughtful design touches.
The home’s left wing is comprised of the kitchen and dining spaces. The kitchen, located at the rear of the wing, features custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, soapstone countertops, and sleek, modern finishes. A flat archway connects to the formal dining room, creating a semi-open layout that makes it easy to maintain conversation while preparing meals.

The left wing’s semi-open layout allows for easy connection between the kitchen and dining spaces.
Upstairs, the home’s three bedrooms offer serene retreats, each thoughtfully designed for comfort and style. The primary suite exudes warmth, while the additional bedrooms provide cozy, light-filled spaces for family or guests. Back on the first level, a flight of stairs leads to a partially finished basement, offering flexibility for use as a library, home office, or second living room.
Out back, a stone patio surrounding a fire pit invites evenings spent under the stars, framed by mature trees that provide shade and privacy throughout the seasons. The fully fenced yard offers space to roam or garden, and a one-car garage adds functionality. A screened porch – connected to the home’s mudroom and easily accessible from both inside and out – offers a quiet spot for morning coffee or al fresco dining in the warmer months.
