Sitting in the center of Kent's tree-lined historic district is this absolute jewel of a home. Only having three owners since it was built in 1925, this home has been well loved and beautifully preserved. It is easy to picture yourself spending evenings on the deep front porch watching the quiet bustle of the neighborhood. From the entry way to the dining room, so many period details have been preserved. French doors, gleaming oak woodwork, arts and crafts era built-ins, an oak trimmed window seat and a stunning fireplace surrounded by glass fronted bookcases create a sense of subdued elegance. The rooms are large and lead gracefully from one to the other. The kitchen is bright with original cabinetry reaching all the way to the 9' ceiling. Modern appliances and pantry shelving in the adjacent hallway make this an easily functional space. A half bath on this floor has penny tile and timeless fixtures. The second floor features three large bedrooms sharing a beautifully updated full bat
