Featured on the 2001 Park Hill House Tour, this fabulous 1914 Center Hall Colonial on beautifully landscaped property embodies that indescribable something that sets a home apart. Is it the way it looks? The way it feels? The way it makes you feel? All of the above.The owners have taken extraordinary care to restore the hallmark elements of this amazing home. The extensive restorations include: 77 gorgeous windows with antique wavy glass, brass window and door hardware, plaster ceilings and walls, picture frame moldings, original period light fixtures, hardwood floors, original glass-front cabinetry and enamel mid-century modern sink and drainboard in the kitchen, and all three bathrooms were restored while preserving the vintage antique fixtures.Everything about this house is truly beautiful and light-filled from the stunning living room with classic fireplace and remarkable architectural details to the adjoining sunroom with windows on three sides, the gracious dining room off the stair hall and the sunny kitchen with breakfast room and deck in the treetops.The master bedroom has a unique configuration of six 12-paned windows that face both west and south and meet at the corner of the room to bring the natural beauty of the outdoors in. And the bath has a fabulous 6' soaking tub. Three more corner bedrooms (one with a cozy sunlit alcove) and the hall bath complete the second floor. On the third floor, there's a charming at-home office or artist space with interesting roof lines and dormers and another full bath.Not only do all the amazing windows bring in natural light but enchanting vistas of the sprawling property (a double lot at nearly half-acre) are available from most rooms in the house. The completely fenced yard has a park-like feel with sweeping lawn, flowering trees and shrubs, natural stone steps and rock walls, and terraced gardens overflowing with perennials and bulbs. It creates a sense of privacy, solitude and peace...and even room for a pool.
