Property Description
When noted architect William Price gazed upon this 6 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath stone and brick home in 1897, he must have felt great pride. He had designed a particularly elegant, sophisticated home that was to become one of the finest of the historic Pelham community's collection of custom designed and built family homes of the late 19th century. And if Mr. Price is gazing down from above today, he must relish how this home has been so beautifully maintained and improved over the last 123 years. He would notice: geo-thermal heating and air conditioning, the transformation of his rear 2nd floor into a smashing master bedroom suite, his original oak floors in superior condition, a very 21st century eat-in kitchen designed by a gourmet chef. And he would appreciate how his oversized double hung and bay windows still bring in abundant sunshine. Floor Plan: 1st floor: Entry foyer with built-in benches; large welcoming room with fireplace; living room; pocket doors to formal dining room with bay window and original corner cabinet; butler's pantry with original built-ins; updated gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, Franke sink with Hans-Grohe faucet, gas cooktop, electric ovens, Fisher & Paykel dish drawers (dishwasher), garbage disposal, Sub-Zero refrigerator, tons of cabinetry and counter-space with granite countertops, handsome glass backsplash, center island with comfortable attached dining table at one end, cork floors; laundry room with front-loading washer and dryer, deep stainless steel sink in soapstone counter with room for folding and rod for hanging, more storage, flagstone floors; powder room; exit to broad deck and large rear yard. 2nd floor: Two large connecting bedrooms at the front of the house, one with wall of closet; full bathroom with shower over tub and glass doors and the most lovely bas-relief trim on original ceramic tile half-wall; middle bedroom with good closet enjoys all the light from a 4 window bay; 2 hall closets; rear stairs; stunning master suite that includes sitting room, huge walk-in closet, large custom bath with shower over tub, Kohler fixtures and Grohe faucets, large linen closet and medicine cabinet, and finally the master bedroom, stretched across the back of the house and surrounded by the sun-kissed windows of the original sleeping porch. 3rd floor: Two marvelous large rooms: the front room includes a pool table and pool accessories including a ping pong cover, large storage closet and old sink (not functional); the rear room has been used as a comfortable family room with closet; a small middle room can be used as bedroom or storage room; whole house fan; full bath restored in 2016 new porcelain tile floor, refinished original tub and original marble sink in good condition with re-plated legs; drop-down door leads to attic above with solar-powered attic fans. Basement: unfinished for utilities, work area, and storage. Geo-thermal hot air heat (backed by gas-fired hot water boiler)and Central Air are key upgrades. 200 AMP CB service. 2 car garage with new re-built roof and electrified original doors. After 123 years, Mr. Price would be pleased to know that the owners boast that his "great architecture is combined with functionality", that it is a "perfect home for entertaining large groups", while it is "large enough to have quiet spaces", that it is "in a wonderful community, both friendly and diverse." All this in a green residential neighborhood just steps from shops and restaurants, with easy access to bus and commuter rail. Showings to start Tuesday, 3/3/2020. Easy to show. Quick settlement possible. More photos to come!!
