As you step off Main Street past the deep wrap-around porch into the enveloping maple and cherry inlay of the foyer, will you glide up the inviting staircase to the spacious second and third floors, or be tempted instead to the parlor with its floor-to-ceiling, hand-crafted library shelves and rolling ladder? Which of the four fireplaces will you choose to curl up by, or will you rest instead in the sunny bay window in the living room? Will you open the pocket doors to the dining room for an elegant gathering, or close them for a cozy family evening? Will you fill the seven bedrooms with loved-ones, or rent out the top two floors as flats? Will you keep animals in your barn, or use it as a studio space, or maybe to store that car you want to fix up? What will you plant in your garden? Who will you invite to join you on your porch swing? The possibilities are endless, but first you have to make it yours...
