Description

First time on the market in 63 years, this beautifully maintained home preserves timeless architectural detail throughout. Classic hardwood floors, high ceilings, and coved moldings highlight the main level, anchored by a large living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a handsome baluster staircase. The formal dining room opens through French doors onto a large deck with pagoda-style framing, while the kitchen area features a butler's pantry, powder room, built-in breakfast nook, updated countertops, and a new range. The second floor offers a spacious primary bedroom, two additional bedrooms, a shared hall bath, tons of closets, and one cedar-lined closet. Downstairs, the finished basement provides dedicated entertainment space with a second fireplace, dry bar, and classic tongue-and-groove knotty pine paneling. Outside, the fully fenced, mature yard features white vinyl scalloped panels and an expansive deck anchored by a river birch tree and peaceful landscaping. The yard has a four-zone sprinkler system for easy maintenance. Parking and access are convenient, with a two-car garage with an automatic opener and a newly paved concrete alley. Great location within one-half mile of the trains and one mile to the lake.
