Upon entry, the family room with a white-painted brick fireplace is to the left and a formal dining room is in the opposite direction, complete with a pass-through window to the kitchen. A sunroom leads out to the rear deck overlooking the fenced-in yard where there is a detached garage and parking pad. The basement has a full bedroom and bath.
