You will appreciate the newer roof and owned solar panels (both 2020), and updated kitchen & first-floor bathroom alongside ornate woodwork and original inlay flooring. The gracious first floor includes a large mudroom with laundry, eat-in kitchen, formal dining & living rooms, a comfortable den, and study with built-ins. Upstairs you will find a primary en-suite, five additional bedrooms, and a shared full bath.
