Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from December 01, 2021
Your dream lifestyle space starts here: separate home office, car guy garage with workspaces (4 cars, 900 sq ft), art studio, music studio, home gym, accessory dwelling unit...whatever you need. This sprawling ranch is in a great area and has been given much love and care. Starting with the beautiful exterior, the manicured gardens surround the beautiful front facade with a blend of stone, brick, and clapboard. An elegant slate walkway wraps around the home between the garden and the expansive front lawn to the front entrance. The vestibule opens up to a huge living room with a fireplace. A spacious dining room has large openings on three sides that lead into the kitchen and living room. The oversized Eat-in Kitchen has a mudroom/laundry room off the back. Then there is the added bonus of the sunroom that has been converted into a Four Season Family Room with heat added and new thermal panes in the windows throughout! The original beautiful hardwood floors run throughout the home and this is all just on the first level! This owner loved to fix things and bring life back to the forgotten, from old radios to victrolas, to Model T's. The huge finished basement leads to another large workshop area. There is even a shed! The mechanicals includes a tankless hot water heater and a new furnace. The roof is just 2 years old and there are also Curtain Drains installed. This home is amazing! It is a dream home for a lot of folks. Come and see this special home, while you can!
