    Gather in the bright living room or around the spacious kitchen island for meals and conversation. The kitchen combines modern appliances with the home’s original vintage sink, while wood floors, exposed beams and antique details give the house its distinctive character.

    Everyday conveniences

    A full-size washer and dryer and a dedicated workspace make the home convenient for longer visits.
