About This Home
As of December 2023Step back in time in this gracious 1910 Colonial with many original details and so much charm. You'll note the large foyer, beautiful archways, crown moldings, French doors, the many large windows allowing sunlight to pour in. In addition, there are 4 fireplaces, the original butler's pantry plus a front & back staircase (which has a separate entrance). The main floor includes the front to back living room with a wood burning fireplace and built-in bookcases. French doors lead to a sunroom. There is a main floor office/den and a 2nd sunroom overlooking the patio and lovely private fenced yard. Bi-fold French doors lead to a walnut paneled dining room with FP. Enjoy extra storage in the original butler's pantry leading to the white eat-in kitchen which also features an island and banquet seating. The 2nd floor has 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. The large primary bedroom has the home's 3rd fireplace, a wall of closets, a remodeled full bath and a sleeping porch/sitting room. 3 other bedrooms and a remodeled hall bath complete space. There is access to the rear staircase to the 3rd floor with two additional bedrooms, a full bath and a bonus space with a kitchenette. There are also 2 mini splits (one in the living room and another in the primary bedroom) as well as a detached 2 car garage. Just a short walk to Elizabeth Park where you can enjoy the world famous rose garden, outdoor summer concerts or local dining (with a great Sunday brunch too).
