Built in 1895 by Peter Graffam, the creative force behind the development of this neighborhood at the turn of 19th Century. The architects were Greenleaf and Cobb. The house retains much of the original detail; an L-shaped veranda and 2-story bay windows, leaded/stained glass. A capacious entry with golden oak staircase and wainscotting opens to beautiful LR with bookcases and fireplace, a gracious dining room, and a bright kitchen w/ induction cooking, oak cabinets and quartz counters. Access to private garden. Staircase includes magnificent leaded glass windows and leads to peaceful refuge of 2-room primary suite: Bedroom, sitting room with fireplace, and ensuite bath with lovely tile and marble accents. Two more bedrooms, a hall bath, and a laundry closet complete the second floor. The third floor has a great room with vaulted ceiling, skylights, for billiards, movies, or yoga. Three more bedrooms/offices and a hall bath. Many updates: heat/AC heat pump. Sep. apt. on 1st floor.
