The current owners went to great lengths to update, expand and cosmetically improve this classical stone home, as no room went untouched! All electric has been upgraded and AC units moved to be more aesthetically pleasing. Almost all windows have been replaced. Local architect and builder reconfigured different rooms for better functionality and presentation! Two original stone, wood-burning fireplaces warm the house and are a wonderful ambiance in the living and family rooms. The kitchen renovation and expansion took place late 2012 to the beginning of 2013 and incorporated original Rutt cabinetry with Shubert upgrades. Beyond the visual cosmetic amenities of attractive granite countertops, complimenting cherry & white cabinetry, all 2013 KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar with wine cooler and a plethora of hidden storage, you might miss the pop-up mixing stand, pull out drawers, appliance garage with pull-out shelf, tray storage cabinet, and pantry with storage on the double doors! Throughout the home, you will find special gems like added window seats with storage, computer area aside family room, the laundry room functions as a center hub right inside the garage, a study with serene views through the triple window ribbon, a reading nook of knotty pine in upstairs center hall, a built-in dresser with deep drawers and upper cosmetic vanity in one bedroom, and did we mentioned the master yet? The master suite was gutted and expanded incorporating custom bookshelves, two walk-in closets, plus the master bath presents a custom built-in 2-sided bureau and the wall-mount swivel TV will make everyone elated! There~s also no worries about having enough storage here. A walk-in attic with double cedar closets and built-in storage closets all along one wall in the lower level, plus closets galore! The outdoor living areas include a covered patio with ceiling fan for comfortable dining, an open patio adjoining the fire pit area, plus a hot
