Meticulously updated in 2022, the home received the prestigious Historic Preservation Rehabilitation Award, celebrating its thoughtful restoration and impeccable craftsmanship. From the moment you arrive, the home's fabulous curb appeal and beautifully designed grounds set the tone for what awaits inside. A gracious foyer welcomes you into a sun-drenched, south-facing living room where oversized bay windows, elegant architectural details, and a fireplace create a warm yet refined setting. The striking lacquered library, complete with custom built-ins, offers a dramatic and sophisticated retreat. Perfect for working from home or quiet relaxation. At the heart of the home is a stunning gourmet kitchen designed for both everyday living and elegant entertaining. Outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances, marble countertops, a Waterworks faucet, and custom inset cabinetry, the space opens seamlessly to a dramatic family room with soaring vaulted ceilings. A built-in banquette and stylish wet bar with Waterworks fixtures and an ice maker further elevate the home's entertaining appeal.
