Located in Cherrydale, this three-story A-frame home is larger on the inside than it may appear from the street.  The main floor feels rustic with dark wood ceiling beams, a stone hearth in the living room and a farmhouse-style kitchen featuring light blue painted cabinetry, lots of counter space and a wine fridge.

The primary suite on the second floor includes a walk-in closet and a large marble bathroom. On the lower level, there's another living space with a fireplace and office, which both have flagstone floors. A two-car garage to the side of the house and a shed out back offer lots of storage space.
