The kitchen is designed for both function and convenience with three pantries and a newer dishwasher. The lower level offers additional living space highlighted by a cozy wood-burning stove in the family room, an attached greenhouse (heated) with a brick floor, a spacious 4th bedroom, and 1/2 bath. The whole-house fan provides added comfort and energy efficiency. Recent improvements include four new Andersen windows. The impressive workshop and art studio are a dream for hobbyists, artists, woodworkers, or entrepreneurs, featuring 10-foot ceilings, an overhead door, air filtration system, wall furnace and Vermont Castings stove.
