AKA One Elm Rd. : Moments from downtown and across from Marquand Park, a storybook charm imbues this Norman-style home built in 1942. At its heart, a Juliet balcony offers a romantic vantage point overlooking the welcoming living room/great hall, where a vaulted paneled ceiling is the perfect counterpoint to a stone fireplace imported from the Strozzi Palace in Florence, Italy. A wall of leaded casement windows and doors frames a view of the stone terrace outside, an ideal spot to dine al fresco beneath a a canopy of mature wisteria vines. Beyond, an outdoor meditation garden invites contemplation. Along the back of the home, a galley-style kitchen with top built-in appliances and ample cabinets offers access to the quaint brick butler's courtyard. Master bedroom has its own leaded glass door access to the terrace, plus hall bath. A second bedroom/office completes the first level. A large bedroom and bath on the second level meet an array of needs. Bonuses include wood floors throughout, a heated front porch step to melt snow and ice, a large garden house in the fenced back yard, and attached one car garage.
