A gracious foyer leads to the spacious square living room/dining room with three large windows, built-in bookcases and fireplace. Also accessed from the foyer are a generously proportioned primary bedroom with huge closets and bathroom en suite and a charming library, currently used as a bedroom; a second bathroom adjoins both bedrooms. The cheerful eat-in kitchen is well-equipped and includes a washer/dryer and large pantry. There is CAC in the bedrooms and thru-wall AC in the kitchen.
