Proceed beneath an inviting trellis and up the brick-laid path to discover a living room with traditional paneling and fireplace, built-ins, and vaulted ceilings with exposed beams. The country kitchen is appointed with center island with cooktop, stainless-steel appliances, glass-paned cabinetry, and eat-in area, and the nearby dining room includes a wine storage nook.
