Separate formal Dining room with fireplace. Sunny eat in kitchen has painted 42 " wood cabinets, island, pantry and overlooks the private, fenced backyard. The sitting room is open to the kitchen with French doors leading to a stone stoop and patio. Three roomy bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the 2nd floor. The airy, tree-top 3rd floor recreation room is newly carpeted. Fourth bedroom and full bath complete this floor.
