Following a period of careful restoration after years of vacancy, the property now shines with renewed vitality, honoring its rich heritage while seamlessly integrating modern amenities. Step into a home meticulously revitalized to preserve its early 20th-century charm and elegance. From the moment you enter, you're greeted by restored features like the leaded glass foyer, a grand sliding pocket door in the parlor, and an original fireplace mantel that evoke a sense of nostalgia. Handcrafted wood floors and parts of the majestic staircase further enhance the ambiance, showcasing the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Every detail, from ornate interior doors to intricately designed sheetrock and baseboard trim, reflects a deep reverence for the home's storied past. While preserving its historical integrity, the residence has been thoughtfully updated with modern comforts. A newly renovated kitchen boasts solid surface counters and stainless steel appliances, complemented by fully updated bathrooms featuring luxurious tile flooring and the convenience of upstairs laundry facilities. Modern efficiency meets classic design with state-of-the-art features including spray foam insulation in the basement and attic, ensuring optimal energy efficiency. Updates such as a new roof, on-demand heating system, oversized vinyl windows, and upgraded plumbing and electrical systems provide peace of mind and comfort. Additional features add to the property's allure, including a partially finished third floor ripe for customization, a versatile carriage house with expansion potential, and a wrap-around driveway leading to an inviting covered porch. This offering presents a rare opportunity to own a blend of historic grandeur and contemporary living at its finest. A detailed list of renovations and restorations is available upon request.
