A 2016 remodel has boldly merged old and new into a fabulous, open-concept floor plan with an addition to perfectly complement today's lifestyle....Undeniably visionary in every way, and renovated with architectural precision, what was once a modest 1900's Cedar Shake home, is now an absolute stand-out in this beloved Jugtown neighborhood. Prepare to look twice at this one! With its walls of Kolbe glass, and its sleek, up-to-the-minute kitchen and baths, this home defines the concept of contemporary living. A 2016 remodel has boldly merged old and new into a fabulous, open-concept floor plan with an addition to perfectly complement today's lifestyle. New wood floors stretch from the living room with a fireplace into the dining room and the gourmet kitchen. A sub-floor heating system ensures toasty feet in winter in the family room while folding glass doors create a seamless extension to the fenced yard and deck. Above, two bedrooms, a new bath, and a glass-enclosed study are pleasing to the eyes. The third level is a dedicated master suite that can be closed off with attractive pocket doors for more privacy. The ensuite inspires relaxation. Driveway parking keeps up to 3 cars off the street.
