This home has earned a reputation in its own right as a stately home on the corner of Buck and Washington, tastefully updated & intentionally preserved. The ceiling height and room sizes on the 1st floor balance grandeur and elegance while maintaining a comfortable home. Behind the kitchen is a scullery - once you have one you can never go back! The historic nature of the stairway leading both up and down is a centerpiece - a work of art! On the 2nd floor are two bedrooms, the primary and a secondary - both are ensuites. As the staircase continues once again, the 3rd floor has a bedroom, loft/office and another bathroom. Follow the staircase as it wraps all the way below grade & there is a finished room currently being used as a family room and a work out space. This curated corner lot has a blue stone patio, brick walkways, professional landscaping and is fully fenced in. Many buyers felt they lost out on this home when it was fully renovated 2 years ago, don't make the same mistake!
