A center hall colonial, with the living room and dining room flanking the foyer, this home reveals unique and custom elements as you make your way through the main level. The eat-in kitchen features a beautiful stone wall with a gas fireplace and live-edge wood mantel. The vaulted ceilings and skylights highlight this exceptional space.
