Description
Upon arrival, classic elegance unfolds at every turn. Sunlight pours into the parlor floor living room, accentuating the high ceilings and hardwood parquet floors. Invite loved ones to share stories, games, and great conversation while enjoying the warmth of your working brick fireplace. Pocket doors designed with beveled pane glass add a touch of sophistication, seamlessly transitioning into the stately dining room. Here, intricately designed wainscoting adorns the walls, complemented by detailed glass cabinets and a regal coffered wood beam ceiling. Restored lighting strung from antique medallions cast a warm glow, setting the stage for memorable gatherings with loved ones. The kitchen, a cook’s delight, boasts long-lasting Corian countertops, ceramic backsplash, and wood and glass cabinetry offering abundant storage. Stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and microwave, make meal preparation a breeze, while direct access to the yard invites al fresco dining and outdoor relaxation.
Ascending to the second floor, a stained-glass skylight crowns the space, accentuating the lofty ceiling height. A suite of four bedrooms awaits, each bathed in natural light from southern and northern exposures. One bedroom, currently configured as an extended sitting room, offers versatility and charm. Adjoining the larger rooms is a discreet hallway walk-through closet, meticulously restored to feature floor-to-ceiling polished walnut wood walls, storage, and drawers. A working sink and lighted vanity add a touch of luxury, while Victorian details in all rooms provide restored steam radiators and evoke a sense of nostalgia. Completing this level is a full bath with a skylight, offering a serene retreat for relaxation. Two rooms overlook the manicured garden and backyard, while the front rooms enjoy views of the lush front garden, bathed in southern light.
The lower level reveals a fully finished basement, meticulously renovated to include a separate entrance, a convenient kitchenette, a washer and dryer hookup, and a full bathroom. With ample storage space, this area offers endless possibilities, whether for entertaining guests or accommodating extended family.
