The corner lot, adorned with mature trees and perennials, invites endless possibilities such as a pool, a tennis court, or a lush retreat. A wide, welcoming front porch leads into a gracious foyer, where intricate moldings, wainscoting, and a beamed ceiling set the tone for the craftsmanship found throughout. To the right, the library features built-in bookcases and a fireplace. To the left, the formal dining room, also with a fireplace, maintains its historic charm with dentil crown molding and a vintage servant's buzzer. The kitchen blends original cabinetry with modern updates, including a Thermador gas range and a farmhouse sink. A bright breakfast nook offers the perfect spot for morning coffee, while a butler's pantry provides additional storage and workspace. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, a beautifully renovated space designed by Melville Thomas Architects.
