One can not ask for a more updated, immaculate & move-in ready home as this fantastic Arts & Crafts foursquare. A true craftsman has made this home their dream for the past 17 years, and it shows in every corner & detail! Let's start with the un-seen systems - newer roof (check), new H/W heater (check), new sewer lateral (check), replacement windows (check), complete re-wiring of the entire house (check), newer high-efficiency HV-A/C system with both a humidify & de-humidify mode (check), a water softener system (check), a multitude of recessed lighting on dimmers (check), Sonos speaker system throughout the house and patio (check), an organically fertilized lawn (check) and all new period-appropriate wood trim, solid wood doors & nickel-coated solid brass Baldwin hardware (CHECK!). As for the things one can see easily, let's first talk about the custom-designed professional kitchen that pays homage to Wharton Esherick & Greene & Greene. With ergonomics in mind, the counters/work heights vary for different uses. A live-edge peninsula with a prep/bar sink is anchored by true mortise & tenon joinery. The 4 burner WOLF cooktop also has a grill feature, and the professional exhaust was sized appropriately to allow for BBQs at anytime of the year, INSIDE! A dedicated pot filler is conveniently located to the right of the cooktop. The fridge was recessed into the rear wall to reduce its projection into the room. The 30" convection oven and the microwave are perfectly placed in custom cabinetry. Even the over-sized sink was raised slightly to ensure one does not have to lift full pots without bent elbows! The first floor laundry is a fantastic space, with a movable folding table over the front loading washer & dryer, a drying rack, a small pantry storage unit and even a doggie door out to the fully fenced rear yard. Upstairs, the bathroom was renovated, and the master suite was reconfigured to provide a walk-in closet, vaulted ceiling (with skylight) and even access to an insulated attic "cubbie" closet! The large living room includes a custom-designed & curved window seat, bookshelves & sound system box for all the built-in speakers. The full sized basement was enhanced with an extra-wide 36" access door to the outside (no BILCO doors here!) which is used by the current Owner as an efficient woodworking shop. Finally, the rear patio was significantly enlarged with flagstone, a pergola & curved retaining walls. It truly is done to the highest degree!
