Flexibility abounds in this truly unique home where a free-flowing floor plan offers wide-open spaces designed for double-duty, lending functionality where it belongs, with the homeowner. You feel the grandeur the moment you walk in the front door, as your eyes soar up to the impressive two-story stair tower. Take a few more steps and you just might think you’ve gone back in time. In an intimate area just off the kitchen you discover the inglenook: a hearth with charming fireplace flanked by a pair of cushioned, built-in benches. From that moment on you realize…this is no ordinary home. Built-ins are nestled in corners where space might often be wasted, lending plenty of storage and convenience. A pair of boot benches serve multiple uses just inside the mudroom, while in each of the kid’s bedrooms you’ll find a desk suitable for a computer, or perhaps a quiet place to finish homework. And if that isn’t enough, there’s a secret nestled at the foot of the basement stairs. It’s every child’s dream…a playhouse for giggling and hours of fun…and it’s built right in, making it the perfect hideaway for little ones who want to escape to a secret and safe haven (while still under the close eye of an adult).
