Elegant brick and fine architectural details make this classic Georgian a stand out. Large windows bathe the home in natural light while gleaming wood floors throughout add warmth. Custom millwork, wainscoting and crown moulding highlight the home's good bones. A fresh palette, inside and out, enhances its timeless features. The wide center hall opens to a gracious living room featuring a handsome mantel, wood burning fireplace and built-in bookcases. Its charming sun room with terra cotta tiled floors and Palladian windows with Plantation shutters also offers built-ins for versatile use and French doors leading to an expansive deck. Airy and bright, the dining room with wainscoting opens both into the center hall and charming kitchen, giving the house great circular flow for entertaining. An efficient, updated kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances overlooks and opens to the beguiling backyard. The stairway down from the kitchen leads to an inviting family room with full bath in the fantastic finished basement. Also in the basement you will find the laundry room with sink, excellent storage spaces and easy access to the backyard. Rich wainscoting and a cheery window at the turn of the stairs lead to the second floor where you will find the light filled primary bedroom featuring an updated en suite bath and custom built-in closets. Two additional, good sized bedrooms share an updated hall bath. Additional living space could easily be added in the huge walk-up attic with pine floors and windows. Outside, a newly renovated back deck and welcoming brick patio lead to a spacious, irrigated lawn with mature landscaping comprised of blooming shrubs and perennials. Perfect for gathering family, pets and friends with plenty of space for all activities. The brick and slate garage is a great bonus and it's handsome lines enhance the back garden view. Lovingly maintained and located in a beautiful neighborhood close to restaurants, shops, parks and schools, this home has so much to offer!
