About This Home

As of April 2024

See agent remarks for highest and best info. While the manicured courtyard driveway and flawless facade of this white brick home hint at an elegant interior, no one is ever quite prepared for the gracious size or the glorious scene that unfolds beyond all the beautiful rooms. A stone terrace and a wide veranda overlook an azalea-lined, fenced yard that opens directly to treasured Marquand Park. A built-in outdoor fireplace invites year-round enjoyment of this magical setting and countless sets of French doors bring the view inside. A classic center hall separates the living room and a quiet office, both with gas fireplaces, from the dramatically-hued dining room. The kitchen is timelessly styled with a furniture-like built-in and to-the-ceiling cabinetry that accommodates a 6-burner Wolf cooktop and a Dacor wall oven. Skylights brighten the breakfast area and a side door is handy for when you opt to park in the driveway rather than the garage. The family room addition - with a long window seat at one end, a wet bar at the other and yet another fireplace in between - comes as a wonderfully sunny surprise! Two staircases lend flexibility to the upper level. The primary suite, offering a customized walk-in closet and its own bath, and second large bedroom, served by an adjacent hall, occupy one side, while two more bedrooms sharing a pretty bath and a cozy office are just beyond a central sitting room. This space is especially helpful when guests arrive - simply close the doors for privacy. You’ll be pleased to find new multi-zone heat and A/C equipment in the clean-as-a-whistle basement. While 4 of the 5 fireplaces have no known defects, all five are being sold "as is". The house is believed to date from 1936 but the tax record lists it as 1850.
