CHARMING INSIDE AND OUT! Down this quiet street, reach this wonderful home and notice the character and care in each and every property. This home boasts a double lot! On the right hand is a lush front lawn separated by a decorative fence from gardens, and hardscaping worthy of a home show. The plantings and stone work are magnificent, as are Zen type areas created here. The space at the rear opens to one of the home's patios and more lush lawn for that outdoor play. On the left side of the property first take note of the long driveway which takes you all the way past the rear of the home. Note the multiple lines of the exterior which add to it's distinctive appeal. The first room from the street side is a first floor suite. Special is so many ways -the grand front window is crowned with an elliptical top, the side double French doors lead to a covered brick patio, charming built-ins, plus a full bath and closet, make this the perfect primary, guest, or in-law suite. Behind this suite, French doors open to a stunning living room. This room is highlighted by an eye catching fireplace, obviously built by an old school mason. It has been converted to gas but the beauty of time period remains. The room extends the entire width of the home with 9' ceilings (which are found on most of this level), beamed ceilings, built-ins on one wall surround the windows; closets flank the windows on the other side. This room, as well as many of the rooms on the first floor, have original hardwood floors . Through a five foot curved, trimmed opening you can view from the living room, through the foyer, into the formal dining room and into family room. All the old world charm, with extensive trim everywhere, but still perfect for those seeking an open floor plan. Next, is a large formal main foyer- the main entrance to the home. The front door still boasts original beveled glass! Find hardwood flooring, a stunning staircase with square newel posts, hardwood treds, and painted risers. There is a landing toward the top of the stairs with a large window and window seat below. At the end of the foyer is a powder room that has been recently "freshened"; the laundry is subtly hidden here. The next room, to the right of the foyer is a gracious formal dining room. It is a great size to entertain and is highlighted by custom wainscoting. What a place for those large family get togethers! Enter the kitchen from either the convenient side dining room opening or proceed from the dining room to the voluminous family room. The kitchen, always the heart of the home, has lots to offer. Rich oak cabinetry is topped by black granite with a speck of gold- just the perfect touch for this property. There is a coffee area for for that morning wake up. A rounded peninsula doubles as extra counter space, when needed, and has a handy built in desk. The main wall of the kitchen includes an excess of top and bottom cabinets, acloset pantry, five burner gas stove with tile backsplash, deep stainless steel sink with window above, dishwasher, and double door fridge. The breakfast area extends into the large family room. It sets on the same level as the kitchen, yet with it's octagonal shape sits one step above the family room - open on all sides to enjoy family activities. The family room is a WOW! 14' at it's peak, it is big, bright, roomy and open. Two sets of atrium doors exit to the rear "trex" like deck. and descend to a large paver patio and delightful shed. But wait, all this and we haven't gotten to the 2nd level... Up a few steps from the main stair landing is a "second foyer". Off this space are 3 truly special bedrooms. One is the original primary bedroom, it runs from the front to back, features hardwood floors, two walk-in closets, inset reading area with a 5' rounded, molded opening and windows on 3 sides.The two additional bedrooms are large with plenty of closet space. As an extra bonus each of these rooms has been fitted with a loft. What fun!
