The curb appeal and charm of this red barn colonial will welcome you from its covered front porch and continue through the grand two-story foyer and gleaming hardwood flooring. The center hall turned staircase is flanked on either side by a formal dining room and living room or study. Wondering how you clean that beautiful foyer chandelier? It lowers electronically. The expansive kitchen offers gorgeous cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, wood flooring, and stainless-steel appliances, including a 6-burner gas cook top and plenty of seating for informal meals.
