There is a sunny Breakfast Room off the kitchen with large windows, a ventilating skylight and radiant heat under the ceramic tile floor. The windows of this room look out on a native stone patio surrounded by raised flower beds.
The wide, pillared wrap around porch naturally shades the 1st floor rooms, providing cool breezes from the many windows. The yard has mature landscaping including large shade trees: Maples, Chestnut, Evergreens, Mulberries to name a few. It has 4 varieties of lilacs, forsythia, Mock Orange, Rose of Sharon and many perennials. The tree lined U shaped driveway goes down both sides of the house and around the back, between the house and the pole barns.
