Description
The gathering room is a wonderful centerpiece of the home, complete with a grand fireplace, beautiful woodwork with built-ins, and ample space for distinct seating areas, perhaps a baby grand piano(?). French doors lead to the sunroom, which features built-in cabinetry and three walls of windows that let in plenty of natural light and provide access to the fenced yard and gardens. The main floor also hosts a cozy library with floor-to-ceiling built-ins, a dining room perfect for entertaining, and a bright and cheerful contemporary kitchen with stainless steel appliances, gas range, breakfast nook, and access to the deck and backyard. Upstairs, you will find four generous bedrooms, including the primary suite with dual closets in the spacious dressing room and a full ensuite bathroom. Three additional bedrooms each offer plenty of storage and display areas. A full bath with an adjoining laundry room serves this level. A powder room situated at the base of the stairs caters to the main floor. The lower level of the home, with a walk-out entrance, was completely renovated in 2006 and has been transformed into a stunning oasis with a wet bar/kitchenette, dining/game space with banquette seating, media area with surround sound, lower foyer with built-ins, bench seating, and repeated herringbone brick flooring. Additionally, there is a full bath with beautiful tile, a second laundry room with a stacked washer/dryer, counter space, and utility sink. Completing this level is a fitness/studio room with a mirrored wall and barre, as well as the mechanicals room and a storage room. The property is equipped with two furnaces that offer zoned heating/cooling. The lower level features hydronic in-floor heat that was specifically designed with the renovations. Various updates and maintenance tasks have been completed, including electrical service upgrades, roof replacement for both the house and garage in 2009, and masonry tuckpointing in 2009. You can enjoy spending time outdoors on the spacious, well-maintained wooden deck that connects to the charming, landscaped yard with beautiful heirloom plantings. The yard is enclosed with a new vinyl privacy fence, providing you with a secluded retreat. The home’s prime location is in proximity to a variety of local attractions, such as the 400 block, the river-life district, shopping, restaurants, and the Grand Theater, which hosts national entertainment. This home is more than just a beautiful residence; it is a space that inspires a sense of awe and appreciation for the finer things in life. (Some of the furniture could be negotiable.) This remarkable historic property is back on the market as the previous offer fell through due to the buyer’s inability to secure financing, with no fault found in the appraisal or inspection. Impressive Colonial-style 3-story home, designed by renowned architect H.H. Waterman, is in the heart of the Historic District. The property seamlessly blends classic design with modern amenities, offering over 4200 square feet of living space, including 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a 2-car garage, and a spacious and secluded backyard for your enjoyment. As you step into the home, you’ll be welcomed by a grand foyer with herringbone brick flooring and a craftsman-style staircase. Much of the interior has been recently painted highlighting the stunning woodwork and architectural details. The home features hardwood floors, exquisite natural woodwork, French doors, beautiful vent covers, door hardware, and many original light fixtures, while functional picture moldings help maintain the immaculate plaster walls.
