This cottage is well suited for a long, shallow lot. Finished in native limestone with brick accents, rough timber lintels and wide, old world shutters, the home also features a fabulous turret trimmed with timbers around a herringbone brick pattern.

The vaulted entry has a balcony looking out from above to welcome friends and family. A wide arch in the thickened walls leads to the great room that stretches nearly 26 feet to a wood-burning fireplace. Underneath the hand-hewn timbers, large windows let in the sunlight.

A combined kitchen/family room opens off an arched opening. With its own fireplace and French doors leading to the outside, the family room is ideal for casual entertaining. The freestanding island defines the kitchen and adds to the casual yet elegant atmosphere. A short passage off the kitchen leads to another set of storage cabinets, the utility room and the door to the garage.

Down the hall from the entry are double doors leading to a guest room that could also serve as a nice study. Quiet and inviting, this room also features its own large closet and hall access to a fully appointed bath.

The master suite has a large bedroom with a set of tall French doors at one end. The bath holds a wonderful whirlpool tub, an extra long vanity with dual sinks, and a seperate water closet and private shower. The master closet offers ample hanging space and adjustable shelves.

Up the intriguing turret is a winding staircase leading to the second story landing and balcony over the entry. Two generous bedrooms are off this landing, each with clipped ceilings and dormers ideal for an inviting window seat. Each bedroom has its own walk-in closet, a private vanity and toilet, and shared access to a full bath. Beyond a third bedroom is a large attic space for convenient storage.
