The front door opens to an alcove leading to a wooden circular staircase. The original "Winter Room" includes high ceilings, bay window and built-in bookshelves. The living area is abundant with light through sliding glass doors leading to a covered porch and views of the gardens in the backyard. The well lit dining room leads to the eat-in kitchen, which has a side door. There is also a full bath on the first floor with an antique 3/4 size tub/shower combination. The side door off the kitchen allows access to the outdoor shower, sunny backyard with mature ivy and evergreens, and the front yard facing Summer Street.
