Property Description

Welcome home to this classic Colonial set on a tree-lined street in a coveted neighborhood close to the heart of Maplewood. An inviting vestibule opens to sun-drenched, beautifully proportioned rooms made for everyday living and effortless entertaining. The spacious living room features richly finished floors, crown moldings and a wood-burning fireplace perfect for cozy evenings, while the formal dining room sets the stage for memorable gatherings. The kitchen flows into a bright breakfast room filled with personality including wood beams, exposed brick and charming Dutch door. A versatile den offers an ideal spot to work or unwind.
