Description
Classic Hemphill Colonial on an oversized 75-foot-wide lot, completely renovated in 2014 with all the charm of a 1950s home but the newness of newer construction.

This brick home blends timeless architecture with modern living. The main level has a formal living room and dining room but the show stopper 2014 addition of a huge family room with vaulted cathedral ceilings and tons of windows.

Hardwood floors, custom millwork, and quality finishes are found throughout- 2 fireplaces with gas starter and marble surround. Family room has a built in dry bar with additional beverage storage. The primary suite is a private retreat featuring two walk-in closets and a luxurious bathroom with a freestanding Victoria Albert Tub soaking tub, perrin and rowe fixures, rain shower, marble bathroom, separate vanities and sinks, heated floors. 2nd Floor Laundry room and 3 additional bedrooms with 2 full bathrooms dedicated to them.
