The open-concept main level seamlessly flows into the spacious dining area while preserving period details. Grasscloth wallpaper and custom built-ins add elegance and warmth for family dinners or entertaining guests. A recently remodeled gourmet kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances, soapstone countertops, and plenty of cabinet and pantry space complements the main living area. Completing the first floor is a perfect work-from-home space or cozy den at the rear of the home.
