LIVING ROOM

The beautiful bay windows were one of the first things we fell in love with in the house.
 

Dining ROOM

The dining room has 3 incredible features: a stained-glass window, an incredible ceiling with original wood beams, and a beautiful and capacious built-in bookcase.
 

Kitchen

The kitchen is spacious and light, with many windows and a magnificent amount of storage space.
 

Primary Suite

The primary suite is truly an oasis. Incredibly generous with sitting area, large closet and ensuite bathroom. Because the house sits up on a small hill, the windows from the third floor overlook the whole neighborhood. It’s extraordinary and will be one of your favorite spots in the house.

Outdoor Space

The backyard is an incredible play and hosting space with a deck (and a slide down from the deck for kids), swingset, and large lawn. The front porch is beautiful and calming. It’s wonderful to sit there (cozy and dry) during a rainstorm, or to chat with a friend on a lovely night. The house is also right next door to Montrose preschool!
