Well designed and solid construction, this home has an open floorplan on the main level, with private, ample bedrooms above. The deck off the kitchen is perched among oaks and wraps around to the large patio behind the home.

Beautiful wooded setting in Cumberland, close to this small town's amenities and arts community, but with plenty of privacy in a quiet neghborhood.
