Floor Plan

 

Property Overview

 

Living Room

Through the grand foyer and past the open wraparound staircase, you find this exquisite formal living room.  This room has extraordinarily high ceilings, original hardwood floors and a gorgeous decorative “Eastlake” fireplace that illustrates the historic craftsmanship of this home.  Filled with details like the custom mosaic tile work, original moldings and a bay window that floods this space with light, this room is a stunner.

 

Dining Area

This spacious dining room is the perfect spot for a family meal, a classy dinner for ten of your closest friends or a rowdy late night poker game.  With high ceilings, large windows and another beautiful decorative fireplace this room is the perfect mixture of form and function.

 

Kitchen

Flowing easily from the dining room is the updated kitchen. This large, move-in-ready kitchen with center island features stainless steel appliances, tons of cabinet space, and a large pantry. The first floor powder room is tucked discreetly nearby and the convenient access to the laundry room and backyard makes this kitchen the true hub of this home.

 

Primary Suite

SECOND FLOOR PRIMARY BEDROOM

The second floor primary bedroom is spacious and light filled thanks to three large windows and surprisingly high ceilings. Original hardwood floors and large closets add to the easy charm of this room. With easy access to the completely renovated 2nd floor full bath (which features heated radiant floors!) this is a spot you won’t want to leave.

THIRD FLOOR PRIMARY SUITE

This home also features a fully finished third floor.  This space, which has its own updated full bath, would make an incredible primary suite with an architecturally interesting bedroom, and an additional space for a home office or luxurious walk-in closet/dressing area.  This space could also be the perfect au pair quarters or an ideal spot for a long term guest.  

 

Additional Bedrooms & Space

The bathroom renovation features custom tile work and heated radiant floors! On the third floor, you find another updated full bathroom, as well as two large rooms that could easily be the primary suite of your dreams. This third-floor could also be an incredible au pair suite or long-term guest suite.

 

Outdoor Space

This backyard is the stuff of suburban dreams.  With a large patio space for hosting barbecues and al fresco dining as well as tons of coveted grassy play space, this fully fenced yard is the ideal spot for parties, pets and spring time egg hunts.  While this property doesn’t have a garage (which helps keep down the taxes) it does feature a clever shed that gives you plenty of storage for your gardening and sports equipment.
