This home combines classic Victorian design elements with an up-to-date floor plan. The wraparound porch surrounds a turret housing a den and bedroom. The great room overlooks the porch; the breakfast nook offers access to it. The nearby kitchen features an island countertop, large pantry and a built-in desk. A formal dining room connects directly to the kitchen for serving convenience. A bedroom could be used for a home office and is tucked away behind the two-car garage. Three additional bedrooms are on the upper level, along with a large bonus space that could be finished for a fifth bedroom. The master suite features a walk-in closet and bathroom with double vanity sink, spa tub and separate shower.
