The approach to the home is along a meandering paved driveway, past the oversized three-car garage, to a parking area near the home. A deep, covered front porch extends nearly the entire front of the home wrapping around the side, offering room for seating or plants and welcoming visitors to the home through a door flanked with sidelights. The foyer has two conveniently-located coat closets and connects visitors through large doorways with the entertaining areas of the house — the dining room, study/music room, office, and family room.

The home’s dining room features oak floors, chair rail mouldings, a generous bay of windows overlooking the wooded front yard, and chandelier and is large enough to accommodate a large dining table and other furniture. The dining room connects with the dining and cooking areas of the kitchen. Across the foyer from the dining room is the home’s study/music room, nestled in a front corner of the house and accented the home’s wrap-around covered porch. This room occupies the space allocated as a formal living room in more formally-configured homes. It features oak floors, chair rail mouldings, access to the covered side porch through a French door, and access to the rear hall of the first floor through double French doors. Across the rear hall from this room is another office/study space, currently used as a playroom. This corner room features double French doors leading to the covered porch, windows overlooking the side and rear yards, oak floors, and interior double French doors to the rear hallway of the home which mirror those of the study/music room. The powder room of the home is nested between these two rooms. It features white beadboard wainscoting, a white pedestal sink, and white tile floor. The study/music room, office/playroom, and half bathroom are suitable for conversion into a first-floor in-law suite.

The rear hall of the home leads to the open family room and kitchen areas which are the central living spaces of the home. The sun-filled family room features cathedral ceilings, recessed and spot lighting, and ceiling fan. The focal point of this room is a wood-burning fireplace with cultured stone surround and oversized wood mantel with wainscoting detail and bluestone raised hearth. Large, custom architectural windows on either side of the fireplace overlook the backyard and its specimen cherry trees, and conveniently-located double French doors lead from the family room to the deck.

The kitchen is separated from the family room by a half wall with doric column detail. The large eat-in kitchen features custom wood cabinetry with moldings and brushed nickel hardware, polished granite countertops, glass tile backsplash, undermount stainless steel sink with nickel faucet with integrated sprayer head, recessed lighting, pendant lighting over the eat-in area, recessed lighting, work desk area, and continuous solid oak floors. Appliances in the kitchen include a refrigerator with French doors and lower-level freezer, a gas cooktop with ventilation hood, a double wall oven, and a dishwasher. The kitchen’s large center island is topped with granite countertops matching the perimeter counters and features a breakfast bar and cabinet storage. An adjacent mudroom/hallway includes a spacious walk-in pantry closet and serves as a transition space leading to the laundry room, garage, and second level office/in-law suite and bedrooms of the home.

The laundry/mud room is tucked unobtrusively between the kitchen and garage and features a washer and dryer, large service sink, and sunny window overlooking the front yard.

The clear-span three car garage is oversized with extra space for workshop benches and/or storage. Each of the garage bays has a garage door with independent automatic door openers with an exterior access keypad. The garage space has a staircase with a lockable door which leads to the music studio side of the finished basement providing easy access for band practice.
