A small gabled front porch shelters the entry to this country abode. Another small porch lies off the side-entry garage, and a partly covered porch in back is illuminated by skylights. All of the first-floor ceilings rise to nine feet. The kitchen, dining room and keeping room flow together smoothly, creating a wonderful informal space. The island in the kitchen contains a cooktop and a handy snack bar, while a fireplace warms the keeping room and the rest of the area. Both the family room and the master bedroom overlook the backyard. A walk-in closet provides good space for storing clothing near the master bedroom. Next to the master bedroom a five-fixture bath includes a linen closet. Upstairs, one bedroom includes a charming alcove; the other, a walk-in closet. Bonus space over the garage and a hall bath with another linen closet make up the rest of the second floor. Foundation: crawl space.
