In a quiet wing, the large library has a fireplace and three exposures with long windows - it is the perfect place as a peaceful getaway. The renovated country kitchen with a granite island and new appliances opens to the cheerful breakfast area with tall windows on three sides, as well as to the mudroom adjoining the garages and a small bedroom which the owner has used as a generous storeroom and second mudroom. The family room is a wonderful space with a high ceiling, three exposures, a second powder room and access to the back stairs, ideal for an active household. Upstairs is the generous master bedroom with a 12-foot ceiling and a sun-filled renovated bathroom with two exposures and a luxurious whirlpool bath-tub and a separate shower.
