PLAN 456-39

The romance of classic Victorian style is combined with convenience in this gracious 2-story design. Wood posts, round shingles, bay windows, decorative scroll work and a 2-story pitch roofed tower echo the past. A short corridor secludes the lavatory - "powder room" and laundry. But the current era comes "front & center" in the well-equipped kitchen and family room with dual skylights and plenty of room in the area for todays entertainment electronics. A powder room, laundry area and walk-in guest closet are tucked in downstairs and a turned post and rail staircase leads to the second floor. The master bedroom features high ceilings, a private bath and a charming seating area in the tower leading to a roof deck outside. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located opposite the master suite.
