The kitchen opens to a sun-filled keeping room.  Banks of divided-light windows overlook the gardens and pool waiting to be rediscovered. A center island and custom cabinet fronts blend the appliances into the cabinetry. There is literally something new to discover at every turn in this home!  Built-ins, abundant closets or storage nooks, wide-plank floors, bull’s-eye glass, period-style hardware and four fireplaces reward a closer look. Enjoy the spacious fireplaced familyroom with exposed ceiling beams built ins and window seat.  Above the dining room fireplace, murals depict Lancaster scenes, including the Bulfinch Church. In the living room you'll find another fireplace and bookcases. The foyer has a sweeping landscape mural that follows the staircase up to the second floor that leads to 2/3 bedrooms (1 of the bedrooms currently converted to a kitchen). The primary suite features a private balcony and a bath with a jetted tub. Outside, the inground pool, old gardens and multiple patio areas await rediscovery. Currently arranged as two living spaces with two kitchens and two laundry areas, the home offers the option to restore its original four-bedroom layout.
