Not to be missed are the three bedrooms, with two spa-like baths, including a spacious primary suite that has a bonus bump-out, as well as an attached, elegantly updated bath. This space, all in the back of the home, has an area that would work equally well as a second closet or a kitchenette so that this wing of the house could be used as a separate living space. It is easily accessed via its own private entrance off the rear of the home. Finally, there is a fantastic bonus room off the garage that has tall glass doors, an ornamental stone fireplace, skylights and a soaring vaulted ceiling. It is stunning and offers limitless possibilities.The residence, built in 1927, is sited on a deep 6,417 SF parcel and has been landscaped to offer idyllic, magazine-worthy curb appeal. The front yard beckons you in with its verdant lawn bordered by colorful annuals and the backyard is a welcoming spot to dine or relax with several entertaining areas, as well as a finely groomed bocce ball court.
