Charm abounds in this rare 1926 bungalow nestled under majestic oak trees and sited on a deep, .7-acre lot. Features include all formals, master suite, large kitchen with breakfast room and sitting area, ceilings over 9 feet on the first floor. Views from the sunroom are simply spectacular, and as one moves through the house masterful architectural details appear at every turn. Picture stepping into your own private arboretum; the gardens reflect decades of thoughtful planning and nurturing. An additional 884 square feet of living space on the second floor is not reflected in the total footage. Be sure to step out on the balcony for bird's eye view of the back yard. The finished, completely sound-proof music room, adjacent to the detached two-car garage, would be ideal for home office, gym, studio or playroom. This unique, flexible area offers 366 additional square feet of living space.
