The majority of the home was taken down to the studs for a complete renovation, including new plumbing, electrical, mechanicals, and high-end finishes throughout. The thoughtful renovation left the stunning foyer with chestnut woodwork, pocket doors, and stained glass windows in the home intact... retaining the historic charm. The formal living and dining rooms are perfect for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen features custom cabinetry, soapstone countertops, a Wolf range, and French doors that open to the deck. Outside you will find the new flagstone patio, new shed, and the private and fenced backyard. The home's classic architecture is enhanced by custom molding, built-in bookcases, and a handcrafted FP mantel, while new Andersen windows provide energy efficiency. The bathrooms are equally impressive, with marble-topped vanities, high-end fixtures, and a beautifully restored antique cast iron bathtub in the primary ensuite. Exterior renovations include new cedar shingles, fresh paint, and a rebuilt mahogany porch that add to the home's curb appeal. The outdoor spaces are perfect for entertaining, gardening, and relaxing. Offering the ideal blend of timeless elegance and modern updates, this home is a rare find! Prime location close to schools, transit, shopping, dining, and all that Downtown Cranford offers!
