Property Description
An extraordinary treasure tucked into the exclusive, historic Wawaset Park awaits With distinctive character, this classic brick 4 bedroom, 3 bath home is surrounded by lush landscaping and yet the serenity of the setting belies the fact it is within walking distance of the city, area parks, the library, museum, shopping, and restaurants. Impeccably maintained, this absolute turnkey circa 1930s home is simply superb. Abundant natural light is found in every room, beginning in the spacious living room with a gas fireplace and original built-in. French doors lead to a year-round sunroom with vaulted ceiling, exposed brick, and another door leading to the private backyard a true outdoor oasis complete with patio, pergola, paths, mature trees, and gardens supported by a yard irrigation system. Back inside you will find a gourmet, custom kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances and quartz countertops. Ample cabinetry, under cabinet lighting, and a marble backsplash will please the most discerning chef. The charming eat-in banquet area overlooks the gardens and provides easy access from the kitchen for grilling and outdoor entertainment. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large dining room with high baseboards, extensive millwork, and crown molding. Finishing off the main floor is an updated powder room, and welcoming foyer with coat closet. The second floor boasts an owners suite with ample closet space, built-in drawers, and a stunning, classic marble bath. Two additional bedrooms, and another renovated bathroom with washer and dryer complete this floor. The third floor is a true respite, with a spacious bedroom with dormered ceilings, abundant light, and dual closets. You will also find a third full bath, and easy access to a generously sized attic. The clean and waterproofed basement offers another full washer and dryer with plenty of space for a workshop or extra storage. The detached brick garage sits atop a driveway with room for several cars. The recent upgrades are extensive (please see list) and include all newly refinished floors throughout the entire home, new water heater, new kitchen, baths, and more. In addition, you will find custom blinds, extensive millwork, plantation shutters, recessed lighting, solid wood doors, crystal chandeliers, built-ins, original hardware, and so much more. This is a home retaining original features while tastefully updated to accommodate 21st century living. Come see for yourself. Welcome home!
