OPEN HOUSE FRIDAY, JULY 11, 2025, 5PM TO 7 PM

Welcome home to this historic beauty which combines the ultimate blend of charm and character from days gone by with modern conveniences that only high end new builds can claim. The exterior curb appeal is spot on with an all brick home and garage, new architectural roof and concrete across the property, proper historic updates to the wood windows, railings and shutters and lush grass and landscaping. The interior is dreamy with gorgeous details like timeless foyer wallpaper, original fireplace mantle and stone surround, crown molding throughout and exquisite original hard wood flooring. The first floor has a grand living room, dining room and office/den. The kitchen is superb with peninsula seating, granite counters, 48 in range with pot filler, beverage/wine fridge and more cabinets than you can fill. The second floor functions like none other. A primary suite with walk in closet and luxurious private bath, a second full suite with private bath and lastly bedrooms 3 and 4 have their own bathroom to share. There will never be bickering over bathroom schedules in this home. The absolute surprise is the finished basement with full garden level apartment vibes and a separate entrance. That means a second kitchen with granite counters and peninsula seating that is open to the living room, private bedroom (no studio apartment feel here) and a full bathroom with shower stall. Do you need an attached living situation for extended family, for your childcare help, or maybe a college student? Think of the convenience and thoughtful independence of this setup! The mechanical bones are ready to be maintenance free for many years to come with (2) new forced air furnaces that are AC ready, 2 washer dryer hookups (basement and level 2), new plumbing with on demand hot water system, new electrical with upgraded 220 service, entire house insulated with 13” insulation blow into attic. This one is oh so perfect!
