From the moment you approach this home, you are drawn into its beauty and character. Perched above street level, you enter into an expansive enclosed porch which features a working fireplace as well as a ceiling fan, making it enjoyable in all seasons. Two sets of doors lead into the living room, where gleaming hardwood floors are shown off in the abundance of natural light. An oversized archway leads into the formal dining room, where you can easily host 10 or more. Past here is the kitchen, with an adjoining room between the kitchen and dining room that can be taken down to create the gourmet kitchen of your dreams. A mudroom leads out to the amazing backyard, where you can enjoy several gardening areas, as well as outdoor play and entertaining space, and of course the pool! The carriage house is currently set up as a garage with a convenient, finished second level that makes a terrific office. Theres also great potential for turning the entire space into an impressive pool house/guest house. Back inside, 4 bedrooms and a full bath surround the formal landing. The primary bedroom has a charming adjoining bath with tub, and you could expand into the adjoining bedroom for a larger, spa-like bath. Upstairs on the third floor are two more nicely sized bedrooms, a full bath, as well as an attic room for storage. The lower level is finished with a fun, retro style and features a bar as well as plenty of additional space. A half bath on this level is conveniently located for easy access from outside, as well. This home has been lovingly maintained and retains many desirable, original features while allowing opportunities for the next owner to create the absolutely perfect home for them.
