About This Home

As of September 2020

Welcome home to this stunning 3 br, 3 full bath stone twin in the sought after Girard Estate area! As you walk onto the beautiful, tree-lined street and up to the landscaped front yard and onto the covered porch you'll know without question that this one is a rare find. Opening the lovely, custom built wood and glass front door your eyes immediately notice the high ceilings, hardwood floors and thoughtful details throughout the 1st floor. The open floor plan and the large bay windows in the spacious living and dining rooms light a bright path as you enter the substantial, sunny gourmet eat-in kitchen, complete with 6 burner Viking dual fuel stove, Bosch dishwasher, Viking wine fridge and a brand new stainless steel Kitchen Aid refrigerator. Expansive granite countertops provide as much prep room as anyone would need to make a meal for family or friend and there is more than enough over-sized cabinets to store everything else! Out the back door to a sizable deck, great for entertaining, with a built in Viking Grill that is attached to the gas line, so no propane tanks needed ever! The high ceilings and hardwood floors continue up the stairs to the 2nd floor and lead you into the master bedroom with wood built-ins and a walk-in closet, plus an over-sized en-suite bath with marble accents, a large Jacuzzi tub and a glass walled shower. There are 2 other good sized bedrooms with ample closet space, one with a terrace that overlooks the front yard, A sizable hallway bathroom with linen closet and a pull down attic for extra storage completes the 2nd floor. Last, but certainly not least, is the fully finished basement. In addition to the large family room and laundry area there is a newly added full bathroom with a large glass walled white-tiled shower behind a glass sliding door. Extra space built under the porch over a hundred years ago has been dug into to provide access to a "secret" workshop through the closet at the bottom of the stairway. New HVAC system, newer roof with 2 years of warranty still on it make this home a must-have! Get it before it's gone!
