The owners have renovated the interior spaces yet thoughtfully retained original character, including deeply-toned hardwood floors, detailed millwork, rosette corner blocks, solid six panel and pocket doors, original hardware, slate fireplaces, and transom windows. Begin your tour in the elegant foyer, w/timeless vintage details, yet stylish updates & d cor. Continue through the first floor and discover 4 separate parlors, each unique in placement, but connected in design & finishes. There are ample opportunities to create spaces to suit the buyer dining room, living room, study, library, etc. These rooms are graced w/well-preserved period details including 4 gas fireplaces, plantation shutters & abundant light. On the opposite side of the home, a more casual entry w/custom built-ins, closet, & powder room, connect to a spacious kitchen, and are part of a beautifully executed renovation including all radiant heat floors. The chef's kitchen boasts recessed lighting, granite counter tops, 42 cabinets, dual sinks, a Wolf 6-burner range & wall oven, Bosch dishwasher, wine cooler, and Sub-Zero refrigerator, all surrounding an oversized center island & bar.

The adjacent room provides a fully handcrafted custom closet w/built-in drawers & room for additional furniture. There are 2 additional bedrooms, one used currently as a den, and the other w/ensuite. Finishing off the second floor, is a full hall bath w/pedestal sink, and a laundry room with sink & folding area, plus a touch down office space. Ascend the stairs to the third floor, where you ll find privacy, & treetop views. This floor includes 4 bedrooms w/abundant closet space, great light, and a full hallway bathroom. No less impressive are the outdoor spaces surrounding this home. Exquisite landscaping leads to a gracious wrap-around porch w/ mahogany floors & flat sawn porch balusters. Mature shade trees & seasonal plantings enhance several raised patios and a hot tub, w/serene vantage points for relaxation as well as entertaining.

With similar distinctive ornamental style, a two-car garage plus workshop sits just behind the home.
