Situated on a quiet, dead-end street, the old and the new combine with 10-foot ceilings, original pine flooring, a gas fireplace in the living room, replacement windows throughout, and an expansive 3rd floor modern retreat. The home boasts 3 bedrooms, plus a spacious study and 3.5 baths. The well-equipped kitchen offers slate countertops, maple cabinets, stainless appliances including a gas range with a warming drawer, hood and heat lamp, a walk-in pantry and wide-open views of nature in the secluded backyard. Just on the other side of the kitchen is a formal dining room (currently utilized as a library) with a wall of floor-to-ceiling bookcases and a decorative fireplace.

The second floor has 2 bedrooms plus a large study or flex room, 2 full baths, as well as laundry and a walk-in closet. The 3rd floor bedroom and bathroom, with room for sitting and exercise areas, extend the full length of the house, allowing for cross-ventilation and spectacular sunrise and sunset views. Currently the 2nd floor study and 3rd floor bedroom are used as a primary suite. There is a second story rear deck, accessible from 2 rooms. The fully fenced, park-like backyard offers countryside living in an historic walkable neighborhood. The oversized lot and garden beds with full-day sun offer the perfect setting for an active family or urban farmer but could also support the addition of a swimming pool, studio, large garage, or accessory dwelling unit.
