    What's special

    Extraordinary opportunity to move right into a divine grande dame in the heart of Germantown! This enormous stone twin offers breathtaking character and charm, from the antique Dutch door in the front of the home to its extensive natural gardens. Enter into the foyer, where the original, gleaming wood floors stretch left, right and up the main staircase. The living room's dappled light is filtered through plenty of original, wood-framed windows and simply gorgeous leaded glass. A wood burning fireplace completes the room and inspires thoughts of cozy evenings full of family and friends. The formal dining room has plenty of room for any size table and also enjoys plenty of sun from its multiple windows. A convenient and adorable built-in corner cabinet can feature your china through glass windows, and lovely wainscotting and mouldings throughout make this a memorable space for entertaining. The kitchen, replete with wood cabinets and built-in shelving, is located towards the rear of the home, with plenty of counter space and a handy island for preparing meals. The rear door leads to the verdant yard and patio, where gardening opportunities abound and lounging is an absolute. Make your way upstairs via the main staircase or the rear stair from the kitchen ! The front bedroom is huge and breezy, and shares a jack'n'jill sitting room/study with the second bedroom. The rear bedroom, with its wood burning fireplace and garden views, feels private and comfy. The full bath is located conveniently in the second floor hallway. Onto the third floor where a giant loft space will dazzle you with the potential to build a gorgeous suite or just enjoy it as-is - an additional living room, art studio, play room...let your imagination take it anywhere. The fourth bedroom is also on the third floor, for the family member who will enjoy some extra space and privacy. Homes this beautiful are rarely offered and we are pleased to present it to the next person who will wake up every day feeling very, very lucky to live in this magical space.
