About This Home
As of September 2025Stately 5BR, 41⁄2BA 1915 Colonial on almost 1⁄4 of an acre, in-town! A graceful front portico with Doric columns welcomes you inside, where a convenient front vestibule acts as an air lock & a place to drop your things. Gracious entry hall with a gorgeous staircase with carved spindles topped with a mahogany banister. There are 4 substantial rooms on this floor each w/2 exposures, suffusing the house with light. The family room, with a private entry & new full bath, could also be for guests or Airbnb. French doors off the dining room open to a romantic covered porch framed by mature wisteria. The eat-in kitchen includes plenty of counter space, a pro-style range, and a delightful original butler’s pantry with a 2nd sink & range—ideal for entertaining! Upstairs: 3 generous bedrooms, an office, 1 full and 1 half bath. And what a surprise pass through the primary to find the paneled porch w/10 windows overlooking the garden! Top floor: 2 more BRs and 2 baths. Fenced yard & 3-car parking
