The stone front is a striking feature of this charming home which has a beautifully renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a breakfast bar. The kitchen is open to the dining room and within view of the adjacent sunroom which is accessed through French doors. The light and openness of these three areas is especially inviting. There is a powder room off a rear hallway, and the basement and garage are accessible from the kitchen. The lovely hardwood floors on the first level are refinished and the fireplace in the living room is an attractive focal point. Upstairs there are three good-sized bedrooms, a hall bath, and a second full bath off the primary bedroom.
