Patience is a virtue. And for that, one will be rewarded when this historic home officially enters the market by month's end. Built in 1909, all the character and charm from this era remains in tact. A grand front porch across the entire 'face' of the home welcomes you inside to the quis essential fireplace shared by both the living room and the dining room. Hardwoods are throughout on both levels (including newly refinished floors on the main level.) Once passing by the extra wide stairway to the upper floor, one is enthralled by the large family room with a wall of windows and a box beam ceiling for added beauty. While preservation of these numerous features is thankfully still present, multiple elements of the home have been thoughtfully redesigned and professionally remodeled. A gorgeous chef's kitchen open to both the family room as well as a newer deck just beyond the French doors sets the tone for expectations of today's open concept living, whether enjoying family, friends or entertaining.An incredible 2 story primary suite has been created upstairs including a spa worthy bathroom. A thoughtfully finished lower level provides a much-appreciated home office as well as a large bonus space easily providing a "guest room/4th bedroom" retreat. Numerous elements of the yard, whether it be the tiered, landscaped front grounds desirably placing the home high above street level, the side yard for a moment to reflect and relax (with a convenient side entry into the home), or the ample backyard with patio will complete the exquisite nature of this home. All supported by a sprinkler system for "extended seasonal" beauty" and enjoyment. Numerous updates include a new roof, gutters and gutter guard, Updated HVAC systems (Dual systems for upper floor efficiency and comfort) and more. This one won't disappoint!
