The appealing sliding closet doors in the third bedroom highlight the stunning woodwork that is found throughout this solid home. The cozy fourth bedroom offers room for everyone. A pleasant second full bathroom completes the meticulous main floor. Designed with entertainment in mind, the beloved basement pays homage to this terrific home's 1950s roots.
