If you have ever driven down Earl Avenue in Kent's historic West Side District, chances are good that you have noticed this house. Perched atop a hill on this charming brick street, 510 Earl is a stunner. With the original slate roof, vinyl shingle siding and a beautifully landscaped yard, this center-hall colonial radiates elegance. As you walk through the front door you are greeted by a stately foyer. You will immediately notice the 9ft ceilings, the gleaming wood floors, the natural woodwork and how well this home has been cared for. A wide doorway opens to the living room with a woodburning fireplace as the focal point. The ceiling is pressed tin, and the fireplace is surrounded by built-in cabinets. The room feels both timeless and unexpectedly modern. French doors connect the living room to the family room. Flooded with light, this room is a lovely spot to relax. On the other side of the foyer is a large dining room with the same gleaming hardwood floors. The well-designed and wonderfully bright kitchen is at the back of the house. The custom cabinets reach all the way to the ceiling to make use of every square inch. Aside from newer appliances and updated counters, there is a fun pass-through to the back hallway. The back porch was converted to a four-season sunroom some years ago. With a modern gas fireplace for heat, you will find yourself gravitating to this room all year round. Up the natural wood staircase to the second floor. Three bedrooms share a tastefully remodeled bathroom. This large bathroom offers a separate shower, stylish claw-foot tub, and plenty of storage space. All three bedrooms are tastefully finished with original doors and big windows. In addition, there is a small nursery between the front two bedrooms. This small room would make a wonderful office or study nook. Outside, a retractable awning brings shade to the brick patio. An oversized two car garage has workshop space. This home is an absolute jewel. Come see for yourself.
