    Welcome to 205 E. Isabella St - the gem of the Newtown Historic District. This spectacular Colonial home was originally built in 1917 by the Tilghman Family, owners of the local lumber mill, and is described by local history enthusiasts as the most 'Well Built Home' in all of Newtown. Thoughtfully renovated in 2015, this stunning residence exudes timeless elegance combined with modern comfort. With five spacious bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms and multiple living spaces, this home offers a perfect blend of majestic craftsmanship and contemporary amenities. As you step inside the home, you are greeted by an inviting grand foyer that expands into a traditional floor plan, accentuated by beautiful hardwood floors and crown moldings that reflect the home's rich history. To the left and right of the foyer are two spacious living areas each featuring its own fireplace; the Library with a gas fireplace and the Living Room with a wood-burning fireplace. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the beautifully modernized kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a built-in microwave, dishwasher, and gas range. The kitchen boasts quartz countertops, an eat-in island for casual dining, and a butler's pantry with Antique Dish Pantry, making it a chef's delight. Through the solid oak swinging door of the butler's pantry is a stately, formal Dining Room perfect for large gatherings and holiday entertaining. Up the grand staircase, retreat to the large master suite with an adjoining sitting room (currently used as a young child's room / 6th bedroom). Two other large bedrooms and two full baths make up the second floor layout. Not to be overlooked on the second story is the screened in Sleeping Porch with swinging day bed that had once been used to escape the heat of the summer months. On the third floor is an entire Suite complete with Sitting room (5th bedroom) and Full Bathroom. The home offers generous storage space, featuring two storage rooms on the third floor, multiple walk-in closets, a full basement plus a Carriage House in the backyard with capacity for 2 cars. Step outside to discover a spacious backyard, perfect for outdoor entertaining. Multiple balconies and a screened porch invite you to enjoy the fresh air, while flood lights and a monitored security system provide peace of mind. The property also features a partially paved and gravel driveway with ample parking space accommodating multiple vehicles with ease on this .35 acre lot. Located in vibrant downtown Salisbury, this home is just steps away from local shops, dining, and cultural attractions, making it an ideal spot for those who appreciate the charm of historic living with modern conveniences. This residence is not just a house; it's a place to create lasting memories. Experience the outstanding design and esteemed craftsmanship that make this home a true diamond in the Newtown Historic District.
