    Wood-burning fireplaceLight-filled sunroomFlat green backyardUpgraded countertopsFully floored atticPhone nookFormal dining room
    OFFER DEADLINE: Noon, Tuesday, May 5th (seller reserves right to accept offer before then). This one is special—a one-of-a-kind custom-built 1939 Colonial charmer. Three bedrooms are located upstairs, plus a flexible lower level featuring a bonus room, full bath, and additional living space. A walkway through the expansive, maturely landscaped front yard leads to the front door, which opens into a distinctive rotunda-style foyer—complete with its own phone nook, and glass door knobs, a charming nod to early 20th-century design. The classic center hall floor plan offers a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace to the right and a formal dining room to the left. At the rear of the main level, a modern kitchen features upgraded countertops, a stylish backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances. A 2005 two-story addition enhances the home with a light-filled sunroom off the kitchen and dining area, along with a convenient half bath. Upstairs, you’ll find a generously sized traditional hall bath, two secondary bedrooms, and a primary suite with a sitting area and ensuite bath, located on the second floor of the addition. One of the bedrooms also includes a staircase leading to a fully floored attic—ideal for storage or future expansion. The flat, green backyard is perfect for sport or entertaining, complete with a large, raised patio accessible from the kitchen and lower level. Situated on an 8,450 sq ft lot, this historic home is best experienced in person to fully appreciate its character and charm. The Barcroft neighborhood is as special as this house. It hosts a variety of community-centered events throughout the year, including a Fourth of July parade, holiday celebrations, and seasonal traditions like an Easter egg hunt. Many gatherings—like potlucks, civic meetings, and neighborhood socials—take place at the historic Barcroft Community House. Barcroft is not only conveniently located for commuting, it is an urban haven, bringing neighbors together, reinforcing a strong sense of community.
