Original wood floors & millwork, oversized windows & a clawfoot tub meet a lofty addition, top of the line motorized skylights, a solar energy system & EV charging. Relax in the private yard & hot tub, cook or dine on the back deck & sip coffee on the wrap around porch. Inside, the white kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, walk-in pantry and a great entertaining flow between the family room & the original dining room.
