Inside, a generous floor plan features five spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and one half bath, including a private third-floor suite with its own full bath, ideal for guests, extended family, or a home office.Main-level highlights include a formal paneled dining room, a bright and inviting breakfast nook, a gracious entry with mirrored wall, and a sun-drenched living room with original leaded glass windows. The layout offers a rare straight path from the side door to the basement, emphasizing flow and function.
Throughout the home are original multi-paned operable windows, custom-fitted storm windows, and custom-made window locks on the first floor. The hardwood floors—sanded only once in nearly a century—remain in excellent condition, reflecting the care this home has received over generations.The basement features classic terrazzo flooring and includes plumbing for a potential future bathroom.
