Property Description
From its prime location, just steps from Nassau Street, this home with a rich history, has been lovingly renovated to today's lifestyle requirements but also honors its past. The grand wrap-around porch makes a dramatic entrance, deep enough for rocking chairs, inviting you to come and sit a while. The first floor is where timeless elegance meets modern desire. This historic gem's many original features blend seamlessly with the updates through-out. The rooms have high ceilings and hardwood floors. Original and intricate trim accentuates the ceiling height in the living and dining rooms, and the dentil detail is mirrored in the fireplace mantel that surrounds the gas fireplace. Just off the dining room, a perfect reading nook invites you to cozy up on one of its two sunlit bay window seats overlooking the tree-lined yard, with additional access to a private courtyard that is at the front of the home. A butler's pantry, with glass-front cabinets and lots of storage, leads into the kitchen and rear of the home. Soapstone counters atop the white cabinetry, flanked by open shelving, give a timeless appeal and, the pressed tin backsplash and exposed brick honor the homes past. To complete the first floor there is a mud room entry and half bath featuring a small casement window overlooking the garden. The second floor is home to three of the four characterful bedrooms of the home and hall bath. The expansive primary suite on the third floor is a light-drenched masterpiece, blending luxurious sleep space, a creative work haven, and an oversized spa-like bathroom into on breathtaking retreat. The large bath has an oversized shower with double shower heads and a double vanity, the dressing area has lots of closet space and natural light. The basement is unfinished but great for maximum storage. Don't miss the additional building in the back, with open-concept layout and soaring ceilings, perfect for guest quarters or an office.
