The towering front exterior displays classic curb appeal in its red brick facade and powder blue shutters. Inside, you're welcomed by a foyer and coat closet. Hardwood floors extend across the expansive, open main level, while crown molding trims the soaring ceilings. A marble fireplace anchors the front living area, where a pair of tall windows provide natural light. The dining area is made for entertaining with space to accommodate a table for 8+. Past the staircase and a powder room, the large kitchen has a full suite of appliances, bright windows, and a breakfast nook.
