Listing broker remarks

More than just a five room Ranch-- this distinctive home is an inviting country cottage, full of charming architectural elements. Park in the pretty circular drive. Enter the property's front door and you will be welcomed into a dining room complete with a working fieldstone fireplace. Walk a few steps into the adjacent living room and notice the multi windows, brick fireplace and cathedral ceiling with soft radiant lighting. The compact kitchen is handsome and the two bedrooms are generous in size. This home is a nice blend of warmth and airy ambience. Outside there is a formal patio area. The grounds cover 0.87 of an acre. And a bonus feature-- There is the possibility of a membership in the Robbins Park pool club.— Barrett Sotheby's International Realty
