The proud owners of 509 Hamilton have poured loving care and meticulous updating into every inch of this charming house, which they've fully enjoyed and impeccably maintained over the past 20 years. From the refined finishes that add style to the thoughtful custom built-ins throughout to optimize storage and the whole-house generator, every detail has been considered. A beautiful stone facade, classic window shutters, lush landscaped grounds and extensive hardscaping capture your attention and heighten the appeal upon arrival. The gracious entry foyer with a striking main staircase and traditional center hall layout leads to a large living room at left and formal dining room at right, creating an easy flow for entertaining. The elegant living room accessed by an open arched entry is warmed by a wood-burning fireplace and receives generous sunshine from multiple windows including a bay window wall. French doors extend the comfort into the light-filled family room with a wall of glass windows and doors to the expansive 40+-foot-long rear deck. Nearby is a powder room, lovely breakfast room with a custom built-in pantry, and fabulous kitchen sure to inspire your inner chef. Here you~ll find built-in appliances, ample cabinetry and counter space, another custom-fitted pantry, and peninsula island with seating and storage for the family to gather around. A wood and leaded glass door conveniently opens to the deck for seamless summer parties and barbecues. Stairs lead down to the grassy fenced backyard. Host sit-down meals in the spacious dining room brightened by a big bay window overlooking front grounds and wall of custom built-in storage. The upper level presents 3 bedrooms to unwind and settle down in at the end of the day (hardwood throughout underneath the wall to wall carpet). The large master suite is a perfect retreat, with numerous windows inviting in natural light, 2 walk-in closets, and a private bath with oversized shower and built-in linen closet. Plus there are 2 more spacious, sunny bedrooms, each with fully customized built-in closets, and a full hall bath with tub/shower combo.
