‘Home’ has always been a sanctuary – a place for inventing the story of ourselves. Recently, we’ve asked our homes to provide so much more than a shelter, an escape from the world. With loads of soul & a "Grand View" of the city, #87 debuts as a sun-splashed oasis in the heart of the Brackett district. Thoughtfully planned to celebrate original craftsmanship, this gem has been remodeled to live like a new home. Rediscover the joy of home-cooked meals in the front to back kitchen which offers a Quartzite island & high end appliances. Relax by the gas fireplace in the living rm while looking out over the patio & wooded yard through glass doors. Barn doors open to an elusive extra rm, perfect for office etc. Escape to the serenity of the top-floor master suite w/full bath, sitting room, walk-in closet & stunning views. The mid level offers 3 spacious bedrms, bath & laundry, while 2 rooms & 1/2 bath complete the lower level. Watch the sun rise & set at Robbins Farm RIGHT across the Street!
