The custom-designed bath upstairs boasts a large shower and a restored claw-foot tub that’s original to the house.

At 3,422 square feet, this raised ranch offers lots of space for entertaining, including a spacious formal living room, a family room addition with a vaulted ceiling, and a composite deck with a canopy. The kitchen is open, although it could use some updating. A five-room in-law suite makes up the lower level.
