A Dutch door leads out to the delightful porch. The dining room is also in the original part of the home with its wide window sills and a wood burning insert in the brick fireplace.

The large laundry/mudroom and a separate, well appointed half bath complete the main floor.

In addition to the main house there is an excellent guest house or studio/office. The overall space offers an open area with access to a small deck and a separate bedroom and bathroom...currently un-heated the addition of a wood/pellet stove or electric heat would complete its use year round.
