It has four points of entry, including a front door that opens into the spacious and welcoming formal living room complete with a working fireplace fitted with an insert. The living room connects to the formal dining room and hallway through 2 sets of beveled glass French doors that match the exterior doors, all of which are original to the house. The back entry has a back porch converted into a mud room/laundry room that opens into a large kitchen with custom cabinets, a breakfast area and desk connected to an ample formal dining room.

Off the living room to the right of the entry is a music room that can also function as an office or could be converted into a 4th bedroom. Flanking the living room and music room are a carport/covered patio and a glass enclosed sun porch, respectively. Unfinished space includes a small cellar and spacious storage attic.
