About This Home

Classic Hemphill Colonial on an oversized 75-foot-wide lot, completely renovated in 2014 with all the charm of a 1950s home but the newness of newer construction. What you will love is this home is all done for you with all the must haves that are hard to find- like attached garage, mudroom, high ceilings, newer windows, designer kitchen, dream primary suite, 2nd floor laundry, huge basement with high ceilings , and quiet street. This brick home blends timeless architecture with modern living. The main level has a formal living room and dining room but the show stopper 2014 addition of a huge family room with vaulted cathedral ceilings and tons of windows. Connecting to the designer kitchen with an oversized center island, eat-in dining area, walk-in pantry, Thermador, Wolf, and Miele applainces, including a built-in coffee machine. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room and backyard, creating an ideal layout for everyday living and entertaining. Hardwood floors, custom millwork, and quality finishes are found throughout- 2 fireplaces with gas starter and marble surround. Family room has a built in dry bar with additional beverage storage. The primary suite is a private retreat featuring two walk-in closets and a luxurious bathroom with a freestanding Victoria Albert Tub soaking tub, perrin and rowe fixures, rain shower, marble bathroom, separate vanities and sinks, heated floors. 2nd Floor Laundry room and 3 additional bedrooms with 2 full bathrooms dedicated to them. The fully dug-out basement provides expansive additional living space-ideal for a recreation room, home gym, office, or guest suite, plus a half bath. Additional highlights include an attached garage, updated systems, and a wide backyard with ample room for outdoor enjoyment. A rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready Hemphill Colonial offering modern updates, generous living space, and an exceptional location. Professional landscaping and bluestone patio in the backyard with a sprinkler system.
