About This Home

As of September 2023

Solid Brick, 4000+ sf Colonial Home! Not a brick façade. Not just decorative brick. All four sides, solid brick – with just a touch of siding to add architectural interest. Interiors feature plaster board walls with plaster skim coating. 4 BD, 3.5 Baths w/ attached 2-car garage. Formal front entrance with foyer; center-hall stairs w/ solid wood balustrades; front facing windows upstairs and downstairs are all large 8/8 divided lights (REAL divided lights); other windows are (real) 6/6 divided lights; solid wood paneled doors and gleaming hardwoods throughout. They don’t make houses like this anymore! Crown molding abounds in the formal dining room and living room, ceiling medallion for chandelier, and custom cornices which convey. LF fireplace features Federal-style solid wood hearth & surround with classical dentil molding. Main level includes a small library/office with built-ins, a butler’s-style pantry and a half bath.

Charming side porch leads to mudroom and opens to a bright and airy, open concept eat-in kitchen: island with live-edge wood counter, with waterfall effect, family lounging area w/ working brick fireplace, French doors to spacious back yard, updated appliances and finishes.

Upstairs features 4 bedrooms; primary bedroom features an ensuite. Talented homeowner personalized several bedrooms with custom-painted graphics; home shows other artistic pride-of-ownership touches throughout - all of which are cosmetic and can be easily personalized to suit new owners' tastes.

Downstairs/basement is designed as a small child paradise, with child-size doors (in addition to full size doorways, of course) and charming built-ins including a “front porch” and a ball pit. Departing owner ran a successful, licensed daycare operation, which included rigorous annual site safety inspections. Area will easily convert back to a more standard layout.

Lower level includes another fireplace, a full bath, a sink and fridge that can be set up as a wet bar or kitchenette, laundry, and ample storage includes a secured locked room with steel door for your valuables.

Fenced SPACIOUS back yard includes gardens, fire-pit area and ample recreational space. Exterior of property features surveillance cameras. 2-car garage is extra deep, and the oversized parking pad can easily accommodate 8 – 10 vehicles.

This well-loved family home is ready to start its next chapter!
