The kitchen has fabulous, custom built maple cabinets, with curly maple moldings, black solid counters and newer appliances. Just off the kitchen is a screened in porch, excellent for reading or watching the horses go by. The first floor has hardwood floors, two bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs there are two more larger bedrooms, a full bath and lots of closet space. New roof and new windows in 2006. There is a three-car detached garage with additional parking in the drive.
