Situated in the heart of the Historic Unionville Village, this character-filled home is walking distance to Unionville Community Park, Unionville Elementary School, Hoods BBQ, Farmer & Co coffee shop and URA baseball fields. The original portion of the home dates to the 1800’s, with all of the requisite charm and appeal, including exposed brick wall, wide plank pine floors, and extensive millwork. Later additions generously and seamlessly expanded the original home into the showpiece that it is now; including the 3-story addition built in 1999 and the Dining Room addition built in 1985. Enter the home through the right entry door into the vast Living Room addition with wide-plank flooring, central wood-burning fireplace, custom millwork and attractive paned windows. The Living Room also provides a handsome modern staircase to the 2nd floor and provides a functional option to the quaint turned staircases originally offered in the ‘original home’. Finally, French doors provide access to the private brick patio and landscape gardens. The Waterbury kitchen was tastefully and timelessly updated in 2004 and continues with the same attention to detail recognized throughout the home. Kitchen opens to the Family Room with gas fireplace, plenty of built-ins and additional secondary entrance door. The kitchen also provides secondary access to the rear brick patio with stone retaining walls. The entertaining flow of this home will surely impress! Behind the kitchen is the sunlit Dining Room with vaulted ceiling, ample built-in storage, wood beams, and small propane-fired ‘wood’ stove. Rounding out the first floor is the powder room and main-floor washer and dryer. Upstairs the second floor offers 3 nicely sized bedrooms, including the primary suite with walk-in closet and en suite bath. A small transitional reading nook segways nicely into the ‘original’ home with the 2 additonal bedrooms and hall bath. Another staircase leads to the 3rd floor office…..a quiet place to effectively work from home. Downstairs, there is a semi-finished basement with flexible use as an additional Family Room, Rec Room, or Exercise area. Outdoor entertaining is picture perfect, with character-filled brick patio, and attractive gardens. The rear equipment shed was built with the same attention to detail as the house and provides additional adjacent gravel parking spaces. A total of 5 off-street parking spaced come along with this home. Other notable features include a newer range, washer, dryer, and hot water heater. Plus the shake roof is only 12 years old! Plenty of life here! Set your appointment today for this charming home!
