Imagine walking through the front door and the flicker of the fire catches your eye in the wood burning stove, as your nose trails to the warm cookies situated on top of the five burner gas stove. You notice the charm of the house, with it's high ceilings, its winding staircase, and radiant heat. You think to yourself the stories this house could tell. Then you notice the updated plumbing and electric, on-demand gas water heater, plentififul storage in closets and the basement and feel assured of its reliability and comfort. As the tour wanders upstairs you'll see a chandelier that can be dimmed to cast an evening glow. Then, you'll wander toward the well-lit master bedroom with a bay window and cushioned white fresh carpet. The second bedroom charms you with its sloped ceiling and elegantly painted colors and wall-to-wall closet space. Finally, the third bedroom appears cozy, perfect for a nursery or office, and you’re surprised to learn a queen bed can easily fit. As the tour concludes you notice the security of the fenced in backyard and the convenience of a two car tandem garage. Finally, you step out onto the screened in front porch, and can imagine coming home from a jaunt in the park and sharing refreshments on a warm summer evening under the ceiling fan. This house truly has a soulful presence that will capture your heart.
