The kitchen then flows directly into the dining room, featuring an original tin ceiling, timeless crystal chandelier, and access to the covered side porch - ideal for summer dining. At the front of the home are two spacious living rooms, separated by a formal foyer.

Outside, a private one-acre lot provides space to play, garden and entertain, while a 3, 000sq ft carriage barn offers additional space for a multitude of potential uses. Residential/Limited Business District zoning allows for conditional uses such as offices, professional studios, and more.
