Expect the unexpected with this Colonial-not-a-Colonial vintage home. Endless best features begin with the front-to-back living room flooded with light from the wall of French doors opening to the veranda & pool. A lovely ambiance is set by the simple fireplace, and by the ceiling beams & wide board floors that continue through the entertainment space into the dining room, bright & light pouring in from the oversized window. A very modish curved window looks into the climate-controlled greenhouse, perfect for party overflow or starting spring seeds. The original kitchen, w/open shelves & lots of counter & storage space, serves as the ultra Butler's pantry. Heading towards the back, the newer kitchen features new appliances, views of the beautiful yard & dining area. The library, lined with bookshelves & warmed by a charming fireplace, leads into the spacious main floor Master Suite. Fren...
