Welcome! This beautiful home is brimming with vintage charm, natural light and classic beauty. Perched up off the street, it offers inviting open spaces, a gorgeous kitchen and separate living quarters plus many efficiency updates and custom details.

Approaching from the street, you might fall in love even before stepping inside. The home sits well above the sidewalk on a beautiful elm tree-lined avenue. A staircase leads to a classic front porch with plenty of space to relax, enjoy the trees and watch the sunset. The beautifully restored front door opens into a proper foyer, where it’s immediately apparent that this home has received a meticulous level of care and attention. Entering into the open floor plan the living room is full of windows and natural light, gorgeous wood floors, high ceilings, tasteful updates and classic details.

Along with being stylish and inviting, the living room is the perfect spot to get cozy with the charming Jøtul direct vent gas stove. Take in the character of the home as you make your way from the living room into the large dining room, enjoying the windows with their original wavy glass. The large north-facing windows and spacious layout make it just right for entertaining and intimate dinners alike.

The large kitchen is a real showstopper with well-planned flow. Its features include stainless steel appliances, gas range, custom myrtlewood range hood, ample quartz counters, Bosch dishwasher (2022), soft-close cabinetry, large pantry with pull-out shelving, classic subway tile, and a wraparound breakfast bar adjacent to the dining room. Conveniently, just beyond the kitchen is an ample mudroom with built-in bench and shelf and plentiful coat hooks. A side door from the mudroom leads straight to the backyard and garage.

The layout on the main level is ideal. From the south side of the kitchen and dining room, a short hallway with a pocket door leads to 2 large bedrooms, one with a double-door large closet with built-in organizers and the other with a walk-in closet that includes a window. The main level bathroom between the two bedrooms has been elegantly updated with ceramic tile to the ceiling, heated floors, heated towel bar, Toto ultramax toilet/washlet and Robern AiO medicine cabinet with built-in LED lights.
As you make your way around, you’re going to love the versatility and spaciousness this home offers. Find your way upstairs to a beautifully finished room with multiple skylights and bleached wood floors that brighten the space even more. A pocket door at the foot of the stairs adds even more privacy. This flexible space is easily imagined as a fifth bedroom, home office or yoga room…really, the possibilities are endless!

Back around and down to the lower level is an exterior entrance for convenience as well as an ample laundry room with custom shelving for folding and storage. The door to the lower living area makes it possible to create a separate living area, while still making it easy to share the laundry room. The lower level is expansive and superbly updated with a large living room space that includes a sink and bar area, 2 big bedrooms, large bathroom and storage room. Egress windows let in an abundance of natural light to create a comfortable and bright space.

Step out into the beautiful backyard which has many native plants, other established landscaping, custom cobblestone patio and Timbertech deck. The fully fenced back yard has a secluded feeling which makes this delightful private space perfect for dining, entertaining or enjoying on your own.

A convenient, long driveway with a cobblestone-paver parking pad leads to the one-car garage, which is clean, tidy and wired for a car charger. Another cool feature is the Duramax locking bike shed just next to the garage.

All of the systems in the home were updated in 2017 and many more wonderful updates have been added including solar panels purchased outright in 2019, custom Indow storm window inserts, new garage roof (house roof was done in 2017), Timbertech deck, back porch & stairway, custom window treatments, Bosch dishwasher 2022, and bedroom closet expansion.

The location is a real sweet spot, on a quiet, tree-lined avenue, quick commute access and close to restaurants, bars, cafes, parks, schools, grocery and so much more. This is the ideal sophisticated home!
