porch (added in 2013) and features a custom arched front door worthy of a Tolkein novel.
Enter into a vaulted vestibule adorned with its original hanging fixture. Once inside, discover oak floors, built ins and original trim throughout. The cozy living room boasts a fireplace and clever, open wall niches that invite natural light. Adjacent to the living room, a sunny office/den awaits, complete with a renovated half bath. Entertain guests in the updated dining room, showcasing a built-in china cabinet with glass on double sides and an original telephone nook. A huge new deck, windows and sliding doors were added in 2022. Attached kitchen offers ample cabinetry, double oven, stainless energy-star appliances and a laundry chute that has become indispensable to the current owner.
Venture upstairs to discover the creative details of the second-floor bedroom/main bath level, featuring skylights, beams, vaulted ceilings, and hardwood floors throughout all three bedrooms. A generous cedar-lined linen closet adds convenience, while the vaulted bathroom features charming pink and gray period tile work.
But the surprises don't end there! Ascend the upper hall staircase to find a large third-floor space, perfect for use as a study, playroom or additional bedroom featuring high ceilings and tons of built-in bookshelves. The roof and skylights were replaced in 2020, boosting the home's energy efficiency.
Downstairs, an energy-efficient furnace/heat pump installed in 2012 guarantees year-round comfort, while on-demand hot water was added in 2018. The property also includes a one-car detached garage, ample parking in the lengthy driveway, and a large metal sculpture adorning the back retaining wall.
Truly, this home is incomparable in location and charm and we haven't even talked about all the amazing neighbors. It is a wonderful community, walkable to everything. Seller is sad to say goodbye to this lovely home.
