About This Home

Historical Elegance Meets Modern Comfort – A Timeless Georgian Masterpiece. Built in 1920, this stately brick Georgian is a true testament to timeless elegance and enduring craftsmanship. Over the past century, it has been home to just five families, a reflection of its lasting appeal. Spanning four thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained stories, this residence sits on over 1.5 acres of lush, park-like grounds. The property features a stone patio, garden beds, secret garden with natural trails and fern garden, outdoor seating areas, and privacy-enhancing landscaping, offering a perfect blend of tranquility and sophistication. Gracious Interiors with Original Details. Step through the double entryway, flanked by closets, into a grand foyer showcasing a beautiful open staircase and stunning original woodwork throughout. The grand living room features a gas log fireplace and an adjacent sunroom that opens onto the patio, creating an ideal space for entertaining or relaxation. Across from the living room, the formal dining room flows seamlessly into a modern yet classically inspired kitchen. Here, you’ll find slate tile flooring, granite countertops, an updated sink, disposal, microwave, stove top with grille and griddle, and refrigerator, complemented by custom Graybil cabinetry. Updated lighting add modern touches, while a cozy breakfast room and an enclosed back porch, perfect as a mudroom, complete the kitchen area. The main floor also features a private office with built-ins, a half bath, and additional patio access, making it as functional as it is inviting. Luxurious Bedrooms and Renovated Baths. Ascending the open staircase, you’ll discover the second floor, which includes two generously sized bedrooms, ample closet space, and a second fully updated bathroom. The crown jewel of the second floor is the sprawling primary suite, complete with double closets, a fireplace, a fully renovated en-suite bath, and a sunroom that offers an ideal space for a studio or private workspace. Both custom bathrooms on this level have been impeccably renovated, featuring imported Italian tile, custom cabinetry, Corian and tile countertops, Kohler fixtures, Robern mirrors, and modern conveniences such as a whirlpool tub in the hall bath and a luxurious shower in the primary bath. Third Floor and Lower Level – Endless Possibilities. The walk-up attic on the third floor provides an expansive, open space with multiple closets, ready to be transformed to suit your needs—whether as a playroom, studio, or additional living space. The lower level is a fully functional extension of the home, complete with its own walk-out entrance, second kitchen, exercise area, spacious storage closets, a full bathroom, and a family room. Additional spaces include an office with extensive built-in storage, a craft or hobby room with a wash sink and extra built-ins, plus a mechanical room. This level offers flexible options for multi-generational living, hobbies, or work-from-home setups. Outdoor Features and Modern Updates. A gorgeous brick driveway with a turnaround leads to the detached two-car garage. The home is packed with modern conveniences and upgrades for peace of mind, including: Security system (Per Mar), New storm doors and energy-efficient windows, Reverse osmosis water filtration system, Clay tile roof well maintained and sealed in 2024, Radon mitigation system installed in 2023, Chimney tuck-pointed and waterproofed in 2025, Dual-zone central air conditioning, 400-amp electrical service. This exceptional home harmonizes historical elegance with modern amenities, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy both sophistication and comfort. Whether you’re savoring the peaceful outdoor setting or exploring the multitude of interior spaces, this property is a true masterpiece, ready to welcome its next chapter. 3rd floor some of the furniture may be virtually staged, no alterations or changes to the home!

Real Estate sales and service. After working retail I went to working Marketing and Membership with a Chamber of Commerce helping business grow and build. I have always been in some customer service role. When I started working in real estate I said I didn't want to be bored, they laughed, little did I know then. I've relocated multiple times in my life, across 3 different states and several times within those states so I've always had a desire and joy in helping people new to the area as well.
