The solid brick residence has been meticulously maintained, and the lush landscaped grounds provide colorful blooms spring, summer, and fall. A wide drive proceeds to the attached 2-car garage offering inside access to the tiled mudroom & laundry room beyond. When entering from the main front doors, you are greeted by a huge reception hall that provides a gracious introduction with high ceilings, hardwood floors, open archways & a spiral staircase. A large hallway area off the entry accesses the living room, master bedroom, powder room, & den/study with double rear-facing windows.  Entertaining is seamless with a desirable host's layout.
