The kitchen is charming with white cabinets and Big Chill vintage designed appliances. The property consists of the main house, a small guest house containing a bedroom and bath, and a carriage house containing a workshop and additional living space ( used currently as a bedroom, office, flex space, and a full bath)-- there' s even a dog run/ wash. The guest house and carriage house add approx 1449 sq ft to the sq ft in the main house. The home has been lovingly restored over the years and updated in keeping with the character of the house.
