On the right hand side of the house is a nice sized dining room and behind it is a classic breakfast room and small hand done kitchen.. Two other bedrooms and another full bath finish the 2nd floor. There is a permanent stairway to the finished third floor...perfect for spare company or children's playroom. The basement has lots of good work space and a game room for children or a man's cave.
