The current owners have made a number of updates to the house.  They added the mudroom, a laundry room and an additional bath, they replaced windows, renovated the kitchen, added built-ins to the study off of the living room.  They put in an a beautiful master bathroom, pictured above.  One of the owners is a furniture maker, and he has built and installed gorgeous built-ins throughout the house.  Below is an example of his work -- the poured concrete and wood fixture in the downstairs half bath.
