Rich in original character and thoughtfully updated throughout, this exceptional home offers the perfect balance of timeless craftsmanship, stylish finishes, and functional living spaces designed for today's lifestyle. A welcoming front entry opens to an elegant living room featuring gleaming hardwood floors, crown molding, stunning original woodwork, beautiful stained-glass windows, custom plantation shutters, and a striking wood-burning fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases.

The chef-inspired kitchen seamlessly blends historic charm with modern convenience, showcasing 42-inch cherry maple cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, original subway tile dating back to the home's 1925 construction, and a spacious butler's pantry with custom cabinetry. Just beyond, a generous mudroom offers stylish tile flooring, built-in storage, and everyday functionality. Three spacious bedrooms occupy the main level, each featuring beautiful hardwood flooring. One bedroom is enhanced with custom built-in bookshelves, making it an ideal home office, library, or guest room. The updated full bath includes classic subway tile, modern flooring, a pedestal sink, and Kohler fixtures. The second floor serves as a private retreat with two additional bedrooms, including an expansive primary suite featuring a walk-in closet with custom organizers, a separate shoe closet, abundant storage, and an updated bath finished with a marble-top vanity, new tile flooring, and a beautifully tiled shower. The newly finished walk-out basement significantly expands the home's living space with a large recreation room, dedicated play area, full bathroom, and an oversized laundry room complete with built-in cabinetry, folding station, utility sink, and newer washer and dryer. A custom wine cellar, highlighted by French barn doors, exposed brick accents, stained ceilings, and temperature-controlled ventilation, adds a distinctive touch that is sure to impress. Additional updates include newer windows throughout, custom window treatments, a tankless water heater, updated 200-amp electrical service, extensive exterior improvements, and a detached garage. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with a beautiful paver patio perfect for summer entertaining, outdoor dining, or simply relaxing.
