About this home

Stunning, sublime, impeccable, pristine: these are but a few of the words that describe this cherished home, in the same family since 1934. The front foyer and common rooms have woodwork from first-cut Vermont ash. Oak floors throughout first and second levels. Original windows with wavy float glass, rich mouldings with egg-and-dart motif, pocket doors, outstanding quality and workmanship everywhere you turn. Architect-owner designed the kitchen and powder room in 2016. Sunlight pours in on all sides of the second floor -- it's tough to decide which bedroom you'll choose, but two of them share a bath with unique original tile. Massive closets everywhere. Beautifully conserved original hardware on doors and cabinetry. Lofty attic has tremendous potential for 2BR + remodeling of existing bath. Massive fir deck with dual access from the house. Attached 2-car garage under.
