1635 High St.

Inside, visitors step into a large, stately living room with a high barrel ceiling, a dramatic Spanish-style fireplace, an oak floor and oversized arched windows and doors that flood the room with natural light. Two sets of eight-foot French doors on either side of the fireplace open to a custom wood deck surrounded by a lovely garden filled with mature landscaping and colorful plantings. The dining room, next to the living room through an open arched doorway, has an arched picture window with beautiful garden views, recessed lights and a handsome oak floor. The thoughtful kitchen and family room remodel successfully enhanced the home’s original architectural aesthetic, while adding modern features for today’s contemporary lifestyle. Situated behind the dining room, the kitchen is as functional as it is attractive with ample glass-fronted white cabinets, a double-oven range, limestone tile flooring, granite counters and a glazed-tile backsplash in a soft, earth-toned color reminiscent of southern France, while a breakfast nook has built-in window seats beneath bay windows with garden views. The fabulous family room is open to the kitchen, down a short set of stairs from the breakfast nook, and has custom-built bookshelves and a desk for a home office, a full bathroom/laundry room combination, and a 16-foot wall of accordion doors that open to professionally landscaped gardens and a detached storage/potting shed that may have flexible conversion potential. Both the family room and expansive gardens are equally ideal for entertaining, or simply relaxing in an exceptional indoor/outdoor setting.

The home’s bedrooms are on the second level, up a winding set of stairs past a sweet Juliet balcony that overlooks the living room. Both bedrooms are generously sized and feature oak floors, crown molding, walk-in closets and large windows with pretty garden views. A full bathroom on this level has a tub/shower combination, and is lined with hand-crafted glazed tiles in a vibrant cerulean blue that channels the sun-drenched spirit of Italy!

1635 High Street is a residential treasure both inside and out, filled with 1920s charm, character, and surrounded by spectacular gardens. Close to parks, top schools, and the shoreline, this lovely home is ready for a fortunate new owner.
