Enter from the front porch into the living room with built in bookshelves and a gas fireplace with a custom wooden mantle and mercer tile hearth and surround. A perfect place to curl up with a good book on a snowy winter night. The hardwood floors flow into the dining room with abundant light and beautiful built in cabinetry. A huge, remodeled kitchen offers shaker style cabinets, granite counters, tile backsplash, center island, recessed lighting, a breakfast banquette, and some neat original features such as a built in ironing board. A laundry room, powder room and garage are all accessible from this wing of the house along with plenty of additional storage and coat closets. The gigantic family room offers another gas fireplace with built in cabinets on either side, tray ceiling and double doors to the enclosed side porch. It also has its own kitchen and powder room - a phenomenal space for entertaining. Head upstairs and turn left into the Owners suite with a huge walk-in closet (was previously a bedroom), full bath and main bedroom. Back down the hall are 3/4 other nice sized bedrooms, an office, a craft room, exercise room and another full bath. A large unfinished attic and basement provides loads of storage or potential for even more living space. All of this plus newer roof and AC, a 2 car attached garage, a driveway able to fit all of your guests, a bluestone patio and a large yard with beautiful landscaping. Whether it is cold winter nights snuggled up with a book by the fire, watching the big game in the amazing family room with a 2nd full kitchen, or the balmy summer evenings to come barbecuing on the patio this home offers the space for it all. Welcome to 287 N. Lincoln Ave... Maybe you are home already!
