Description
Warm, spacious, and gracious vintage Wheaton farmhouse seeks new owners. After 30 years together, farmhouse is tired of current occupants and would like to see new, more exciting people who have not been telling the same stories for decades. Maybe the farmhouse wants to fall asleep without hearing snoring or someone muttering indecipherable song lyrics. Quite frankly, the farmhouse just wants the freedom to maybe try some new things and make new memories.
About farmhouse: Solid, elegant bones. A great deal of charm. Well-kept and painstakingly restored in many areas. May need a few cosmetic changes to suit your personal style but is also well-appointed and highly functional as it is. The house will be most delighted if you accepted her without wanting to run a sledgehammer through her because you have watched too much HGTV and bought into the open concept notion. Do you always need everyone in your home within your line of sight, especially during a quarantine? Buy a house that has nooks and crannies you can seek refuge in.
More particulars: Four bedrooms upstairs, along with two full baths. Master bedroom has an ensuite double sink bathroom with soaker tub and separate shower. Second floor laundry with newer washer and dryer. Dual zone HVAC with Nest thermostat on first floor. Detached, heated four car garages with 100 amp electrical along with industrial air compressor, ideal for a car enthusiast or someone wanting a workshop or craft space. Both an office and a teak library/den (with built in floor to ceiling bookshelves) on first floor---perfect for this new work from home world. Powder room on main floor. Lovely hardwood floors throughout home, beautifully maintained and in excellent condition. Painstakingly restored windows in much of first floor. French doors between living and dining room were found in the attic in the 1980s and harken back to the home's original footprint in the early 1900s. Eat in kitchen with two newer stainless dishwashers, newer stainless double ovens, vintage Sub-Zero and practically indestructible countertops. If you run a business from your home, you will love that there is ample parking in the driveway and the fact that it is mere minutes from both public transportation and highway access.
An additional bonus includes a well-organized basement with plentiful industrial shelving already installed. Second set of laundry hookups in the basement as well. Endless well-kept lawn, great neighbors, and a peaceful setting
make this an ideal location. It absolutely feels like a vacation home. A flexible close is possible, and the inclusion of some furniture, shop tools, and lawn equipment in the sale is also an option.
This home has good bones, good vibes, and we want to find an owner who will enjoy it as much as we have. If we really like you, we may even leave you our treasured tiki torches, which have lit many a happy hour and party over the past three plus decades.
