This attractive home has a floor plan which nicely balances rooms and areas for maximum convenience. The lower level plan has a brightly lighted garage; big enough for two cars, a work bench and two storage closets. Next to the garage there is a teenage recreation room which has a corner fireplace, two large windows and sliding glass doors facing the patio, a bar alcove for adults to use and an adjacent hobby room. There is also a large storage space at one end of the room, to help in keeping clutter to a minimum. Opening off this teenage room is a bath with enclosed shower, a laundry room and basement heater room and another room designed to be used as a bedroom or den. Since the lower level contains all of the informal and work rooms, the main level can be devoted to rooms of major importance. A mid-level foyer entrance has a coat closet, stairs to the lower level and a curving stairway with a balcony at the main level. At the front of the house there is a well-designed kitchen with a snack bar divider facing an informal dining area. The kitchen has room for a built-in oven and counter top range, a broom closet and plenty of cupboard and counter space. There is also an outside door to the deck. At the rear of the house, convenient yet private, there is a spacious living and dining area which has three big windows and glass doors leading to the deck. A low rail on either side forms a partial divider between the two rooms so you may decorate and use them in a manner which suits you best.

Between the balcony hall and the bedroom area there is a linen closet and a combination powder room and bath. The master bedroom has a private bath, a dressing alcove with a closet and a built-in vanity, a walk-in closet and cross-ventilation. All three family bedrooms have ample closet, window and floor space. The clapboard exterior features a pillared portico and a handsome doorway balanced by matching wings and shuttered windows.
