This charming craftsman-style home offers lots of room for expansion, with two extra bedrooms and a den laid out in the unfinished basement, as well as two bedrooms on the upper floor. Entry is on the ground floor, where the foyer includes a coat closet and culminates in a U- shaped stairway leading upstairs to the great-room complex. Here, a gas-burning fireplace will cast its rosy glow into the dining area and the kitchen, as well as the great room. Separated from the dining area by an eating bar, the kitchen boasts a spacious pantry, as well as an L-shaped counter configuration that promises efficiency. The dining area features an optional built-out buffet that will provide extra storage and serving space, and open on to a covered deck, the idea spot for year-round grilling. Located at the back of the home for privacy, the master suite includes a roomy walk-in closet and well as a conventional closet. The ensuite bathroom includes double basins, a soaker tub and an enclosed shower stall. The second bedroom is situated directly across from a linen closet and a broom closet. Tucked behind these is a three-piece bath. All ceilings measure nine feet. On the ground floor is a roughed-in three-piece bathroom. Sliding glass doors at the back of the ground floor lead to a covered patio. Exterior finishes include horizontal siding and shingles and decorative painted wood in the gables. On the second level, the covered deck features painted pilasters with shingled bases, complementing the stone-based pilasters on the ground floor. Windows are partly mullioned. Designed especially for a narrow lot, this home measures 25 feet wide and 58 feet deep, for a total of 1,200 square feet of living space.
