Property Description
Spacious home with lovely details, including hardwood floors and high ceilings, in a great location. Four floors of living space provide many options. The freshly painted first floor includes three distinct, yet open living spaces, a separate dining room, an updated kitchen, and a powder room. The kitchen boasts new quartz countertops, refinished maple floors, and stainless appliances, and it opens onto a newer deck and wonderful backyard. A lovely faux fireplace flanked by built-in bookshelves graces one of the sitting areas. A large living room, spacious enough for a sectional and entertaining, opens to the traditional dining room. The coffered ceiling and bow window enhance the elegance of the separate dining room. Four second-floor bedrooms surround a central landing with built in linen cabinets & drawers. Each of these bedrooms receives sunlight from two directions making them bright and airy. The primary bedroom is large enough for a king-sized bed, has both a closet and a walk-in dressing area, and has potential for an ensuite bath. The third story contains a cozy bedroom and family room space. This space could be a fabulous primary suite!
