The formal dining room with wood chair rail and beamed ceilings adds to the ambiance of this home.

From here there is an amazing space on the 3rd floor with a full walk-up attic that offers endless possibilities. Finish the third floor off with another bedroom or two, a workout room, or a playroom as, it adds an additional 600 sqft to this home. There’s lots of space here and it is fully floored.
