The home is an elevated example of original Craftsman style, circa 1911, with expansive shingled residence featuring exquisite period details combined with absolute modern luxury. Registered as a historic resource and locally significant home, the earlier era beckons you with tall board and batten wainscot, coffered ceilings, and predominantly original glass in the true divided light windows. 5 bedrooms, 3 remodeled bathrooms, an office, a playroom, plus a tremendous recreation/media room with retractable cinema screen. The grounds are extraordinary and not to be missed. An outdoor kitchen and linear fireplace distinguish the setting along with a tucked-away spa and children's play area all on almost one-half acre entwined with professionally landscaped gardens. What are you waiting for? Nearly 1/2 acre, walk to town. Incredible value.
