Enter the formal living room through pocket doors and find soaring plaster ceilings with cavetto curves, original hardwood floors and a wood-burning fireplace. The heart of the home may be the formal dining room with pocket doors and room for the largest of holiday dinners.

Out back, the large private yard, is perfect for fire pits and lounge chairs. On the second floor, find a den with built-in bookshelves and a brick fireplace with delicate decorative tile. It will be your favorite place to unwind after a long day. Two additional bedrooms and a hall bath round out the second floor.
