This classic yet fully updated residence features 4 spacious bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and an inviting layout perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. The main level features refinished original and multi-piece hardwood floors, three original oak mantle pieces with beveled mirrors and has a lovely and traditional flow. The gracious entry leads past a large living room and through a central hall with a grand staircase. Through a doorway with a magnificent oak stick-and-ball spandrel and pocket doors, is the formal dining room which will comfortably seat 12 at the holidays. Beyond that is a half bath and ample pantry. The kitchen has been renovated with cherry wood 42" cabinets, honed natural stone counters and high-end appliances including a gas range.

A fully finished basement with a large great room includes a convenient en-suite bedroom is perfect for in-laws or guests. A laundry room with full sized machines and a shop sink is just right. The exterior of the property, front and back have been landscaped by the homeowner and feature only local and native plants. Walking up the front steps reveals recent stone treads and new decking on the front porch which has all original trim. There is a private garden and patio in the rear with raised herb garden beds constructed of non-chemically treated sustainable natural black locust hardwood. There are balconies on every level and a side entrance to the garden.
