A cozy corner nook has a gas fireplace with a rocking chair. The main bedroom has a very comfortable queen bed with a door that opens to a small front porch. The den bedroom has a writing desk, a couch that pulls out to a bed, and bookshelves full of reading material from Japanese haiku and other poetry to visual art books. There is a flat-screen television and Apple TV with high-speed wifi throughout. An enclosed sun porch provides a quiet room for reading or resting in spring and summer.
The house has central heating and AC as well as a backup generator.
