Description

For the first time in over 40 years, this grand 1901 Victorian is opening its doors to welcome a new owner. There are stunning historical details throughout that intertwine with modern upgrades including a 2006/2007 expansion and renovation as well as very discreet solar panels that are outright owned and produce a monthly income. Sited on a 9,717 square foot lot that has a long sweeping driveway, a one car garage/carport, a wrap around front porch, and the most spectacular screened porch overlooking the flat backyard - you will feel quite relaxed before you even get inside!

This stately home has 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms spanning over three sun-flooded levels. Oversized windows, hardwood floors, high ceilings and historical moldings are among many of the architectural details this home has to offer. A welcoming foyer leads you into the corner living room that has a wood-burning fireplace and looks out onto the front porch. Adjacent is the formal dining room that is perfect for any size gathering; it has a bay window, wood-burning stove, and a built-in glass front corner cabinet. Through pocket doors to the family room, there is ample casual seating cornered in another bay window as well as custom built-ins and access to the oversized 16' by 19' screened porch. The screened porch has room for a large dining table as well as a lounge area, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. The windowed Gourmet eat-in kitchen has a Wolf range, an additional Wolf wall oven, a Subzero refrigerator / freezer, a Miele dishwasher, a pantry, an abundance of storage cabinets and a charming breakfast area. Completing this level is a windowed powder room, coat closet, utility closet and access down to the walk-out lower level. Upstairs is the private quarters where you will find four large bedrooms, one of which is currently serving as an art studio. The spectacular primary suite has a bay window, an en-suite windowed bathroom with a dual vanity and walk-in shower, a large windowed dressing room and a home office / library. Two linen closets, a hallway windowed full bathroom with a bathtub and pull-down access to the storage attic complete this level. Stepping down into the walk-out lower level from the kitchen you will find the fifth bedroom, a hallway full bathroom with a bathtub, a recreation room and a mudroom that leads you to the driveway and one car garage / carport. Completing this level is a laundry area with a side-by-side washer / dryer and slop sink in the oversized utility room that also houses a second refrigerator, an abundance of storage and the property's main systems. Landscaped and lush, the grounds are a superb place for entertaining all ages. The flat yard is quiet and tranquil as you are garden to garden in the back providing ideal privacy between neighbors. There is also an outdoor BBQ area with prep space by the kitchen side door.
