Step from the gated courtyard up to the arched, covered front entrance, where a decorative storm door tops the entryway. Inside, 12 ft. ceilings with gleaming hardwood floors in the living and formal dining rooms, with a huge original parlor mirror in the living room that expands the layout’s already spacious feel. Imagine entertaining in the formal dining area, where you will find amazing 10 ft. pocket doors in mint condition and a wood-burning fireplace with restored original tiling making an elegant focal point! In 2007, the kitchen was updated to continue the historic feel throughout the home. It includes original woodwork throughout, ample 42-inch custom cabinets, ornate faux tin ceiling, easy-care laminate counters, a farmhouse sink and wide plank floors. Appliances include a refrigerator, dishwasher, oven and a smooth-top stove in the center island.
