Rare opportunity to own and love a classic home built in 1927 with many original features, including a porte cochère and slate roof, on almost an acre. Set well back from the road, the house features 10-foot ceilings on the main level, large gracious rooms, a carriage house, plus a deep level walk-out back yard – perfect for a pool, with enough left over for a large play yard and a garden. Period features throughout this home make it really special, updated to the way we live today. Daylight streams into each room, making it warm and welcoming. The porte cochère adds charm and leads to parking for four cars and the detached guest house. The kitchen has an island, walk-in pantry, built-in desk, original butler’s pantry, and opens to the casual dining area and family room; all these areas have views to the level backyard, bringing the outside in. The living room is centered on the original fireplace and flooded with light from all the windows in this room, has a wide opening to the family room, and opens to the sunroom or office. The dining room can host 12 for dinner and you will delight in the original windows in this room as well. Four bedrooms are on the second level with three original bathrooms, each with original subway tile on all four walls. Each bedroom is generous in size. The laundry room is located on the second floor. The third floor has a playroom and lots of attic storage. The carriage house offers the fifth bedroom, bath, and laundry upstairs with a living room and mini-kitchen on the main level. There is so much to embrace and love in this period home, rare in our market today.

You see it in the way we work, and you see it in the way we play. The reach is always extending further. The search is for excellence and beauty and grace and vibrancy.
