 Lovely hardwood floors through Living, Dining, and Sun rooms.
The wood burning fireplace makes for an inviting focal point.
Note the beautiful crown moulding and trim throughout.  
Coat closet off the living room, opposite the stairs to 2nd story.  
A true representation of the beautiful woodwork through the home.
Original details make all the difference.
 The Sun Room offers yet more space to spread out.
 There are French doors to add privacy to this warm, southern exposure.
Do you think you could make time to relax here? 
Formal dining room also features crown moulding, wide base trim and chair rail.

 Spacious kitchen with newly tiled floor and loads of cupboards!
 New refrigerator & dishwasher, newer gas stove/oven, fresh paint.

 The cutest powder room imaginable off the kitchen.

Family room off the kitchen with wood burning fireplace.
French doors lead to the deck and backyard.
Built-in shelves for books and games, plus tucked behind these 
French doors is the main-floor laundry center!
 Bedroom 1 - smaller of the three rooms, but is graced with built-in shelving and cabinets. 
 This would also make a great office space.

Closet as well as built-in wardrobe.  Note the newer carpet.
 Charming bath has been freshened up but retains the original character with hexagonal floor tiles.
Plenty of updates, and the beautifully tiled tub/shower surround really pops!
 Bedroom 2 - Master bedroom.  Light-filled with beautiful hardwood floor.
Quaint lighting, shelving, and plenty of windows for a light, airy bedroom.
Upstairs hall - behind the mirrored door is a large storage closet - or Kid's fort!
 Bedroom 3 is also bright and cheery.
 More built-in cabinets and shelving plus 2 closets!

 Front stoop. 
 View of the back patio, deck and exterior door from the family room.
 Sun Room, and above is Master bedroom.

I hope you enjoyed touring this great SE gem.
