Description
Step into timeless charm with this spacious Tudor-style home built in 1930, offering classic character alongside modern updates. You won't see many homes with this kind of character still intact. From the moment you enter, you’ll appreciate the 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light. You'll be captivated by the large open foyer and grand staircase. The HUGE living room with striking stone fireplace, unique ceiling design, and leaded glass accents is perfect for gatherings. The dining room is quite large and really adds to the feeling that this is a perfect home for entertaining. The remodeled kitchen combines style and function. There is a convenient first-floor powder room and a tucked-away office, so working from home is a snap The second floor is well-appointed. There are 5 generous bedrooms and 2 full baths. There are ample spacious closets for the bedrooms and plenty of closets throughout the home. (the primary bedroom has a bedroom connected to it that would make a great dressing room, walk-in closet or sitting room) The home also features plenty of built-ins to make life easier. A true highlight for me is the staircase. It is really striking and harkens to a time when quality and craftsmanship were the norm. Additional highlights include plenty of off-street parking and a versatile 1.5–2 car garage. This home offers a balanced blend of historic charm and modern convenience. With 5 bedrooms plus a dedicated office, there’s space for everyone to spread out. Situated on a large corner lot with a park-like setting, this home is designed for entertaining both inside and out. Relax outdoors in the gazebo, cool off in the above-ground pool, or enjoy the privacy of the fenced yard. This is just a spectacular home!
