Listing description

This one-of-a-kind home was thoughtfully designed and built by its original owner, creating a residence that blends timeless architecture with exceptional craftsmanship. Situated on a beautifully landscaped .41-acre lot, this three bedroom, three bath home offers a floor plan unlike anything else on the market. From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the distinctive design, featuring dual staircases, great flow, two wood burning fireplaces, and multiple living spaces! The spacious living and dining rooms showcase updated plank flooring and a large wood burning fireplace with a brick hearth, while the inviting family room offers a wood burning stove, a wet bar with a mini refrigerator, and plenty of room for gathering! The charming breakfast nook, accented by brick and unique architectural details, adds even more character to the heart of the home. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite features brand new carpet and flooring, a generous walk-in closet, an ensuite bath with a jetted tub, and a unique interior window designed to enjoy television from the comfort of the tub. On the main level, a second spacious bedroom offers a bay window with a built-in window seat, while an additional primary-style suite includes large closets, new carpet, a private bath with a heat lamp, and access to a new wraparound Trex and vinyl deck overlooking the stunning surrounding views! Meticulously maintained throughout, the well-insulated home also features extensive storage, a two-car garage, basement laundry, and steel beam and cinderblock construction, reflecting the quality and durability of an era when homes were built to last. The exterior Dryvit system was completely redone approximately 18 months ago, offering peace of mind for years to come! The property offers beautiful views in a quiet neighborhood, and it backs onto Borough-owned land. This is more than a home. It's a rare opportunity to own a truly original property where thoughtful design, enduring quality, and decades of pride in ownership come together. Don't hesitate, let's schedule your private tour today!
