Enter through a classic front vestibule and into a traditional floor plan featuring hardwood floors, an inviting living room, a convenient half bath, and a dining room ideal for gatherings and entertaining. At the heart of the home, the 2016 chef’s kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, natural stone countertops, a statement copper apron sink, built-in pantry wall, and a gorgeous island that is both functional and comfortably seats four. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom impresses with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and a large closet. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and laundry complete the upper level. Original details like moldings, vintage door knobs, a stained-glass skylight, and a custom stained-glass transom over the front door showcase the home’s old-world craftsmanship, while modern lighting and fresh paint bring everything up to date. The outdoor space has been refreshed with landscaping that enhances the English garden feel, creating a private, fenced retreat with a patio perfect for entertaining. Major updates completed in 2025 add peace of mind, including an updated electrical sub-panel and significant waterproofing along the rear wall—earth was excavated, a proper weeping wall installed, and interior tuck-pointing completed.
