The mudroom and sunroom additions are just as impressive, featuring Victorian-era Brighton-patterned ceramic flooring, decorative beveled glass windows, and a vaulted beamed ceiling that radiates sophistication.The second floor hosts three of the home's five bedrooms, alongside a cozy library/loft perfect for quiet study or showcasing your literary treasures. The primary suite is a private sanctuary, with exquisite parquetry flooring, a spa-like ensuite bath boasting a Kallista marble vanity, clawfoot tub, tiled multi-head shower, and a walk-in closet designed with care. The third floor, with its two additional bedrooms, loft, and full bathroom, is ideal for teens or guests.
