Property Description
Step inside to discover the charm and elegance of a bygone era. The foyer opens to a formal living room with stunning wood floors featuring intricate inlay designs. French doors lead to a newer addition, seamlessly connecting a cozy family room, a full hall bath, and a dining area. Adjacent, a bright formal dining room showcases rustic exposed wood beams and built-in shelving, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Enjoy a well-appointed kitchen, perfect for both everyday meals and entertaining. The kitchen shines with lighted display cabinetry, a granite-topped peninsula island, newer appliances, and beautiful wood floors. Skylights and numerous windows bathe the space in natural light, while a relaxed sitting area with a vaulted wood ceiling and transom windows offers views of the pool. The adjoining office, located in the newer section of the home, provides a quiet space for work or study. The family room, with its cozy wood-burning fireplace and built-ins, is an ideal spot to display your cherished books and artwork. The basement, accessible from the kitchen, features exposed brick walls, presenting an excellent opportunity for a wine cellar. A stylish black and white staircase leads to the upper-level sleeping quarters. Here, the primary bedroom offers two spacious closets and a sitting area, connected to an additional bedroom. Two more bedrooms and a full bath complete the second floor.
Architectural details throughout the home include a charming covered front porch with turned wood posts and a swing—perfect for leisurely afternoons. The backyard is a tranquil oasis, featuring a rustic outbuilding with a one-car garage, storage room, and pool bathhouse, all surrounded by blooming gardens, a pond, and multiple lounging areas. The private inground pool enhances the serenity of this outdoor retreat. The former summer kitchen has been thoughtfully repurposed into a colorful potting shed or artisan’s studio, complete with built-in cabinets, two windows, and a brick chimney. Wander along whimsical garden paths to a private patio beneath a pergola, overlooking lush lawns and gardens. A spacious deck with a gazebo offers the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends during summer gatherings.
