Quiet neighbors, comfortable spot. Real antique wood burning fireplace centers in living room for special winter ambience. Also for alternative heat, wood heater plumbed into central heating hallway.

A hallmark of the house is the real and solid materials. The original heart pine floors are sanded back to their original glowing luster and finished with organic natural oil for a very authentic presentation and experience. The rest of the house has real ceramic tile around the majestic hearth and in the beautiful bathroom and kitchen. The walls in the living room and adjoining dining room are textured with the solid wood paneling where you can still see the beautiful sawmarks giving rich character to the antique natural unpainted solid paneling. The clear color-rich bold kitchen is full of heart pine wood accents, from copious shelving to trim throughout.
