Property Description
STEP INTO TIMELESS SOPHISTICATION with this classic two-story Georgian style brick home, perfectly situated on a beautifully landscaped corner lot. Showcasing the architectural integrity of its era, this 1936 home boasts beautiful crown molding, an ornate wood framed fireplace, and pristine original hardwood floors. The formal foyer features high ceilings and a sweeping central staircase, setting the tone for the character found throughout the home. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, a double oven, and Viking and KitchenAid appliances. A wood-planked study and all-seasons room add to the home’s charm and versatility, while a beautiful sitting room features handcrafted coffered wood ceilings and panoramic windows. Generously sized bedrooms offer versatility and abundant closet space. Outside, the manicured back courtyard provides a beautiful setting for relaxing or entertaining. The property also includes a tuck-under two-car garage plus an additional detached two-car garage, offering plenty of parking and storage. A new roof in 2024 adds to the list of recent improvements, creating a home that beautifully balances its original character with thoughtful updates.
