Some homes just have a story to tell. This beautifully preserved 1910 colonial combines the craftsmanship and character of a bygone era with thoughtful updates designed for todays lifestyle. From the moment you set foot on the large open porch, you're greeted with details you won't find in many homes anymore. An open foyer leads to the living room and dining room, separated only by original built-in shelves gives the perfect setting for entertaining. The kitchen is complete with original cabinetry, an updated corian countertop, large double sink, and updated appliances. The walk-in pantry provides the storage everyone craves for their kitchen. Head upstairs and you'll find this isn't the typical layout you normally see in a side-hall colonial. You have to experience it in person. All three bedrooms have unexpected closet space, including a walk-in closet in the primary. Original built-ins for linen storage are conveniently located next to the bathroom. The walk-up attic provides even more room for storage or additional living space. Original light fixtures blend seamlessly with timeless, new sconces and chandeliers throughout, truly honoring it's history while embracing a modern look. Out back you'll find a deep fenced in yard with plenty of possibilities for entertaining and gardening. With two hidden laundry shoots, a recently replaced boiler, and more, this house is ready for you to call it home, today!
