The kitchen/dining area has authentic brick flooring and an ornate Florence Hot Blast wood stove that is well over 100 years old - capable of heating a good portion of the home in winter. Central vac offers added convenience. The bright sunroom with flat-top wood stove has wall-to-wall windows and skylights that bring in an abundance of natural light for an immersive connection with the outdoors.
