It is truly a "secret garden" experience when you walk through the gate of this special home. The beautiful and private yard boasts lush and mature landscaping with a colorful palette of flowers and foliage, the likes of which you would expect to see in a Home and Garden magazine. A slate patio provides a tranquil setting overlooking the grass, and a shady, arbor covered side yard with a bubbling water feature offers an additional seating and entertaining area that you can enjoy any hour of the day. Inside, the warmth of gumwood and the high coved ceilings add a touch of elegance. The refurbished gas fireplace featuring Batchelder tile is the focal point of the charming living room, and you will entertain in uncrowded comfort in the separate formal dining room with stunning built-in hutch and Victorian chandelier. The efficiently designed and upgraded kitchen boasts ample storage and counter space, granite and stainless, and direct access to the side patio area, ideal for outdoor dining. Each of the 3 bedrooms has a nice sized closet, and the upgraded bathroom has beautiful original hex tile, a pedestal sink, and a wonderful recessed multi-mirrored cabinet. This home will delight anyone who desires distinctive architectural detail and the charm of a bygone era, when quality wasn't optional. Window coverings in Master bedroom, nursery, bathroom, kitchen, and above fireplace do not convey.
