About This Home
As of September 2019Welcome home to 1212 Lafayette Ave. Charm and character are married with modern chic in this three-four bedroom three full bath home. An inviting wrap around porch with vaulted ceiling enhances curb appeal and welcomes you home. The open concept front to back layout is jaw dropping from the moment you enter. The living room is complimented by wood flooring, custom trim moldings and recessed lighting. French doors lead you into the private library, which also includes a large closet and oversized windows offering great natural light. The truly stunning dining room offers a coffered ceiling, recessed lighting and is completely open to the kitchen with bar seating/serving area, ideal for entertaining. The center of any home is the kitchen, and this kitchen was designed with careful thought and exceptional detail. Custom soft close white wood shaker cabinets are enhanced by crown moldings and champagne bronze hardware. A spice drawer and waste pullouts are also featured. Quartz counters, pendant lighting, upgraded appliances and gas cooking are all included. To the rear of the home is a mudroom area with laundry hook up, a full bath with shower and French door leading to the new deck, which overlooks 150ft of private back yard space. The area is enhanced by a brick paver walkway leading to the two-car private driveway. Leading to the second level, tremendous care was taken during construction to preserve the original staircase, spindles and railings, further enhancing the character offered in this home. The owners suite is a space you ll love to retreat to, complete with a stunning tile bath featuring a walk in shower, a dual sink vanity and designer tiled floor. An additional bedroom and fully remodeled tile bath are also included on this level. The third level offers a private bedroom with great closets and vaulted ceilings. A full basement is also featured offering great storage. 1212 Lafayette is a truly unique home and the renovation shows extreme pride of workmanship in this total walls-in rebuild, all set in a location that offers easy access to public transit, shopping, locally acclaimed restaurants, bakeries and much more. This is an absolute must see and is a wonderful place to call home and make memories for years to come.
