A Timeless Classic, Reimagined for Modern Living Step inside a piece of history — beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated for the way you live today. Originally built in 1909 and completely remodeled in 2015, this stunning home blends century-old craftsmanship with every modern comfort. New HardiePlank siding, three-zone HVAC, and updated systems throughout mean you inherit all the charm with none of the worry. From the moment you arrive, the home announces itself. A formal entry foyer — graced with a gorgeous glass door with leaded sidelights and transom — welcomes you into a world of original detail: gleaming refinished hardwood floors, a magnificent staircase, and custom woodwork that ties every room together. The formal living room stuns with a new ceiling beam, custom wooden columns echoing the front porchand complementing the gorgous staircase, and an original coal fireplace complete with its exquisite original tile surround, mantle, and screen. Custom drapes and shades throughout lend a curated, move-in-ready elegance. Flow from room to room the way great homes are meant to be experienced. Massive sliding wood doors separate the living and formal dining rooms, preserving the grandeur of open entertaining. A glass sunroom — with its own transom door to the front porch — spills into a cozy morning coffee room, then into a butler's pantry with a built-in wine rack. The formal dining room connects to a bright breakfast area through glass French doors with a leaded glass transom, continuing into a well-appointed kitchen foyer with back porch access and a full bath just steps away. The chef's kitchen is equal parts functional and beautiful: granite island with seating, Electrolux appliances, abundant granite countertops and cabinetry, and garden views of the lush fenced yard. A dedicated kitchen workroom adds extra counter space and an undercounter icemaker — a rare luxury. Separate laundry room with storage completes the main level. A private office with its own side porch exit offers the perfect work-from-home retreat. Upstairs, the gracious staircase leads to four spacious private bedrooms and a full bath — room for family, guests, and everyone in between. Outside, the lifestyle continues. A beautiful back deck steps down to brick and concrete patios enclosed by locking wrought iron gates. Covered parking plus a landscaped additional parking area offer convenience rarely found. A detached workshop handles all your storage needs, joined by a wired open unfinished guest area with its own stairway and upper-level storage — endless possibilities for an anticipated studio, workshop, or future finishing. Mature landscaping, thoughtfully designed sitting areas, and a fully privacy-fenced yard complete this extraordinary offering. Homes like this don't come along twice. A rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history — ready for your story.
