About This Home

Welcome to this exquisitely maintained and thoughtfully updated Country-inspired estate, originally built in 1929 and offering 4,400 square feet of timeless elegance and modern convenience. Situated on a beautifully landscaped double lot with a large drive, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath home masterfully blends architectural character with modern finishes. From the moment you arrive, the storybook charm of the turreted entryway, arched front door, and white brick exterior with stone accents makes a lasting impression. The charming foyer with double height ceilings and gorgeous wrought-iron banister welcomes you to this wonderful home and leads to the massive great room with beamed ceiling, stately wood burning fireplace and 3 crystal chandeliers. The open-plan gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring a large center island, custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and stunning brass-accented lighting fixtures to match the range hood. The adjoining dining room is perfect for both casual meals and elegant entertaining, and there is room for a 2nd seating area in this light-filled space that overlooks the rear grounds and custom built deck, perfect for al fresco meals. Natural light floods the spacious living spaces, highlighting the clean architectural lines, soft neutral palette, and high-quality finishes throughout. Also on the first floor is a spacious main floor bedroom with gorgeous ensuite bath. So convenient! Ascend to the second floor where you can overlook the great room as you move through arched doorways that lead to 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full baths and a full laundry room. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with large walk-in closet and a spacious bath with double sinks, soaking tub, and separate shower. The beautifully finished lower level offers plentiful space with a huge recreation room, oversized bedroom, and lovely full bath. With its blend of 1920s craftsmanship and modern elegance, this home offers the best of all worlds. Whether you're hosting dinner parties, relaxing with family, or working from home, this unique residence offers exceptional style and function in every detail. Don't miss this opportunity to own a historic gem updated for contemporary living.
