About This Home

As of October 2014

During the last decade, the current owner has tastefully restored 303 N. Walnut to its original 1918 beauty but with all of today's most wanted conveniences. Its mechanical systems have been upgraded to state of the art, and numerous enhancements have been made. As a result, 303 N. Walnut is now a wonderful blend of old house charm and modern, contemporary chic. The property has several distinctive natural advantages which enhance its value and desirability. It is situated on a corner lot with no adjacent structures blocking window views. Most windows face south, letting in bright sunlight most of the day. The house is on an unusually large corner lot featuring a wrap-around front porch, a majestic old oak tree, attractive fencing, flagstone patio, wide new flagstone front and side steps, and professional landscaping done by the current owner. The garden was featured on the Barclay Friends Festival of Gardens Tour in 2009. Previous owners added a first floor rear addition and the current owner created a full bath off this room, which is currently the family room but could easily transition to a first floor bedrooom. There is a jumbo 2 car garage with plenty of additional room for storage, plus parking for 2 cars - a rarity in the borough! Inside, the current owner removed the wall between kitchen and dining room, creating an open floor plan in keeping with today's easy lifestyle. Kitchen features an exposed brick wall, custom maple cabinetry w/cherry accents, soapstone counters & sink, artistic tile backsplash, Italian glass pendant lights, & high end stainless steel appliances. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and full upgraded bath on second floor, and 2 finished rooms with treetop views on the 3rd. All this....and a 2 block stroll to the center of town or to Marshall Square Park. 303 N. Walnut is truly a gem among in-town properties.
