Welcome to 113 Sylvia Street in Arlington, a stunning Dutch Colonial built in 1870 that sits on a double lot totaling 6,404 Sq Ft. The home has been lovingly expanded and renovated over the years since 1997 when the owners first moved in. It’s conveniently located on the Lexington town line, less than a mile from Arlington Heights and Route 2. Also nearby is the Arlington Reservoir Beach and playground, Wilson Farm Market, and the Sutherland Woods walking trails are around the corner. Furthermore, the MBTA bus line on Massachusetts Avenue is right down the road. The curb appeal of the home is unmatched as it draws you in. The circular pea stone driveway, the lush professionally landscaped grounds, the stone chimney, and the lovely farmer’s porch replete with spandrel brackets are easy on the eyes. Once inside, “right at home” is the first thing that comes to mind. The inviting great room is adorned with a soaring cathedral ceiling, a wood burning fireplace flanked by lovely Anderson Frank Lloyd Wright “Tree of Life” windows, and custom built-in bookcases. The kitchen just off the great room is designed for the true chef with stainless steel appliances, natural birch cabinets with under mount lighting, granite countertops, tile backsplashes, and a gas range with a direct vent overhead hood. The long center island features stool seating, pendant lighting, and a built-in microwave oven. Also off the kitchen is a sizable office room with two walls of windows that overlook the yard. The front room off the kitchen was the original living room in the home. Fun Fact: it features maple flooring that was installed in the 1960’s that came from a bowling alley in Medford, MA that was closing at the time. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself lining pins up against the wall! The second floor consists of three spacious bedrooms, each featuring fir floors, a spacious closet, and a ceiling fan. The primary bedroom suite takes up the entire top floor and features two closets, oak flooring, and a ceiling fan. The full ensuite bathroom features tile flooring, and a full glass tiled surround shower. Off the living room is a massive AZEK deck with rich mahogany hand railings and black iron balusters, ideal for barbecues and gatherings. The steps off the deck lead to a beautifully landscaped rear yard featuring a sprinkler system, a perimeter garden bed with various perennials, a separate vegetable garden, and a pea stone walkway with Belgian block edging.
