When entering the driveway, one immediately feels the privacy. Step into the beautiful marble foyer that is flanked by both a gracious living room centered by a fireplace (NRTC) with original, stunning carved mantle and the formal dining room with ample room for your larger dinner parties. Beyond the formal living room is an intimate den with built in bookcases. Continue on a few steps down to the unique solarium (other room), flooded with light from walls of windows, and overlooking the lush backyard. It's easy to see that the large kitchen was custom designed by a professional chef with a passion for both cooking and entertaining. The eating area also over looks the beautiful backyard, with a bay window and window seat. Down another hallway is the first floor laundry. The 2nd floor is comprised of four bedrooms, one currently being used as a home office. The primary bedroom is generously sized with an en suite full bath. A second full bath serves the other two bedrooms. The third floor has two more finished rooms and a full bathroom. A great space for guests, an office or a workout area. A wall of closets provides useful storage. The basement is a pleasant surprise with a large finished room with wide width hardwood floors, an over-sized fireplace (NRTC,) a speakeasy type barroom, and a large walk-in safe, but with ample storage. The extra large lot has an in-ground pool, a cabana house, and a two car, detached garage. The privacy afforded in the backyard is beyond compare. This location is walking distance to Nichols School, Elmwood Franklin School, and Delaware Park. Just minutes from Hertel and Elmwood Avenues shops and restaurants. 88 Middlesex was measured by an appraiser and the report is attached.
