OFFERS DUE Sun 4/23 by 5pm. Amazing opportunity to live in one of the most desirable and walkable neighborhoods near Wesleyan and bustling Downtown! This well loved (and maintained) 1923 Colonial is full of charm with beautiful hardwood floors, vaulted great room including new (2023) gas fireplace, custom millwork and architectural details. The main level offers such a nice variety of spaces. In addition to the formal Living Room and Dining Room you’ll find a lovely little sunroom plus half bath near the entry area…great for plants, reading or TV nook. An expansive Great Room with soaring 14 foot ceilings, skylights, terra cotta floors, new gas fireplace and an abundance of windows, doors and light! In the Kitchen you have everything a cook desires with granite counters, slate floors, double ovens, 5 burner gas stove, dishwasher, and tall island with concrete top. All of the appliances are stainless steel and the refrigerator is counter depth so tucked away nicely. Off of the Dining Room there are custom French doors that lead to the most delightful covered screened porch. Thoughtfully designed with skylights, bead board ceiling, gorgeous Ipe flooring, ceiling fan and plexi panels to extend the season…you will want to spend hours out there and it’s ideal for time with visitors. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms ranging in size (large, medium and small). The largest includes a custom closet providing extra storage and a stacked washer dryer (no more lugging clothes downstairs!). The bathroom upstairs has an inviting walk in shower with smooth pebble flooring, hard wired towel rack plus Restoration Hardware mirror and lighting. Finishes are top notch and the skylight really opens up the room providing sky views night and day. As for mechanicals the buyer is in luck. This home comes with a top of the line Buderus (2013) natural gas boiler (heat and hot water), 2019 roof (including garage), 2019 Amana central air system and 2018 full house Kohler generator. There is a 2 head mini split level heat pump system to supplement AC in the Great Room and Sun Porch.

There is an extra washer/dryer set in the basement plus 2 freezers-all included with purchase. A large 2 car detached garage and beautiful blue stone patio finish off the outside. Notice the plantings and pretty little teak front porch. A gardener will be happy here but it’s also easily maintained. Thoughtful touches are everywhere and this property is so private!
