Words cannot describe the absolute exquisite condition this home is in, but I'm going to try. The homeowners have left nothing to the imagination. As you enter the foyer and center hall you'll be enveloped by every attention to detail. There's gorgeous hardwood flooring in almost every room of this home, As you move through the space you'll come into a remodeled kitchen (2017), that every Barefoot Contessa could want! Completely renovated with white cabinetry, quartz countertops, a designer backsplash and an eating island. There are stainless appliances that includes a double oven gas stove with a pot filler, a built-in microwave and there's an eating island with a touch of elegance with 2 chandeliers hanging over it. There are many things of note here. New windows, improved insulation, newer paint and a charming built in, dog space under the stairs. The most unique feature of this home is its updated master bath and a huge walk-in closet that you just don't find in the west end.
Stately brick 3 story westender is a timeless classic inside and out. Seller has tweaked the interior keeping with the appreciation of it's original personality by adding updates that cross over easily to current needs. Entry flows either into formal LvRm w/ crown molding, or up the elegant staircase, or into the spacious DnRm. Seller has added a buffet which appears original with soft close draws offering endless storage. Gorgeous cherry Kit cabinets, custom island and stainless appl. 2nd Flr offers added bonus of custom built in hall cabinet/drawers, updated baths and a stunning custom Mstr Brdrm wardrobe room w/ sliding built-ins. Icing on the cake is the 3rd flr being used as 4th Bdrm and add'l room offers potential living space. Stunning Hrdwd Floors, freshly painted interior. Add'l Updates: Garage Rf '11, Insulation '12, Electrical. This is truly a rare opportunity!
