Nestled on a serene private street, this 1937 residence combines timeless character with modern sophistication. Situated on a large, wooded lot, the painted brick and board-and-batten exterior exudes curb appeal and classic elegance. Inside, rich oak hardwood floors flow throughout, complementing the inviting formal living room with its charming fireplace.
The cook’s kitchen is a culinary masterpiece, featuring custom maple cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island with gas cooktop, and premium Bosch, SubZero & Dacor appliances. A light-filled breakfast room and convenient main-floor laundry along with back staircase add to the thoughtful layout.
Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the home boasts two expansive screened porches and a large family room addition with skylight, creating an effortless connection to the outdoors. The primary suite has it's own private balcony & dressing area, updated bathroom with tub and separate shower, and is one of four well-appointed bedrooms, accompanied by an additional 2nd floor bathroom.
Additional amenities include central vacuum, a finished lower-level family room, lower level full bath & shower, additional laundry hook-up, a tuck-under garage with power for an electric vehicle, and irrigation system. In one of the area’s most coveted locations, this residence offers privacy, sophistication, and modern convenience in equal measure.
