About this home
Single Family · Built 1939 · Historic
Not a Drive-by, must see inside; where traditional meets contemporary flair! Sellers are the 2nd owners & have meticulously maintained this home & it shows! They added a 2 story addition on back of the home in 1989, expanding the footprint to just over 3000+ SF w/ 6BRs, 4 full BAs, 2 half BAs. The spacious kitchen has updated countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinet storage, a pantry, washer/dryer & an adjoining cozy sitting area w/ a built-in desk. Enter the beautifully landscaped flat back yard from the kitchen or the main level primary suite, which was added in 2020, along with the pavers for the patio & driveway. Chestnut hardwood floors are in the welcoming foyer w/ 2 closets & in the large living room w/ built-ins & a fireplace. The family room is off the living room as well as the formal banquet-sized dining room w/ built-ins, crown molding, chair rail & hardwood floors. In 2001, the garage was converted to a study/home office w/ vaulted ceilings, skylight, walls of windows, built-ins, a kitchenette & half bath. Upstairs, enjoy vaulted ceilings, a large hall skylight, ceiling fans & overhead lighting in all 4 BRs. The extra-large primary suite has beautiful custom built-ins & a dressing room. The lower level was renovated to a 1BR apartment in 2010; ideal as an au pair or guest suite, complete w/ a separate side entrance, a kitchenette, dining area, living area w/ gas fireplace, bedroom w/ egress window & a full bath. There is a large storage area, utility room & another washer/dryer on the lower level. Owners have an active Airbnb license, so potential rental income is also an option. Many systems have been updated, roof on the addition is 5 years old, upstairs heat pumps are 5 years old; hot water heater is 4 years old, the AC exterior compressor & AC interior portion of the furnace is brand new, installed 9/2025.
