The vaulted ceilings and walls of windows create a warm and wonderful environment in which to linger. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a fireplace, 2 walk-in closets, and a gleaming bath with a large soaking tub and separate oversized shower. Additional bedrooms are lovely sizes and each, delightfully, has it's own recently updated bath.
