To left is splendid DR with lovely white, built-in, wide-ledge radiator cover that spans front wall and sits beneath dual window, offering finished look. Opposite wall boasts white built-in corner hutch, perfect for displaying crystal and china behind glass pane doors and providing instant storage below, while white crown molding and extra-wide baseboards pop against neutral hued walls. Intimate and inviting! Dual shutter doors lead into renovated kitchen. Hardwood floors become lighter and tinge of sage green paint emerge in modern kitchen.
