Inside, a formal entrance hall offers a preview of the period treasures found within! The main level includes a spacious living room that boasts the original wavy glass picture window overlooking the garden, a tray ceiling, a beautiful decorative fireplace and a handsome matchstick oak floor that continues through most rooms in the house. A wide arched doorway leads to the formal dining room that offers a tray ceiling and a stunning new pendant light fixture. Next to the dining room, the bright, sunny kitchen has a breakfast nook for casual meals, and was updated with granite counters and Italian terracotta floor tiles. The home’s updated bathroom is also located on this level, and features a mosaic hex-tile floor and a bath/shower combination.
Two well-sized bedrooms are located on the upper split level, and feature the beautiful oak floor found in the rest of the home, generous closets, and several dual-pane, energy-efficient windows for plenty of natural light and garden views. A versatile, finished lower level provides a sunlit family room/home office or playroom, laundry hookups, and a full-lite door that opens to a very private backyard with a lawn and garden, and a brick patio for outdoor meals with family and friends.
