trimmed streets is this beautiful stone/brick 3/4 BRs/3.5 bath hillside Cape with complete 1st floor

abundant natural light that reflects on honey-dipped original hardwood floors. Step up to an
equally spacious and striking DR with triple window. These 2 interconnected rooms are showpieces and
were designed for ultimate entertaining . Pocket door is echoed in DR and leads into kitchen, a quaint element that subtly maximizes private and peaceful dining. Kitchen stretches across back of home blending earlier-era amenities with modern must-have appointments! Original Whitehall
